+## Enterprise considerations
+
+If you’re an enterprise admin evaluating {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}, there are specific benefits and controls available at the enterprise level.
+
+For details about enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} for your enterprise, see [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/how-tos/administer-copilot/manage-for-enterprise/manage-spark).
+
+### Why enable {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} for your enterprise?
+
+Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} empowers your teams to move faster from idea to production while maintaining the security, governance, and cost controls that enterprise admins expect.
+
+Benefits include:
+
+* **Centralized control**. {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} is included in the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} license and respects existing enterprise access policies.
+* **Governance and security**. Built on {% data variables.product.github %} and Azure, sparks inherit enterprise-grade reliability, authentication, and compliance.
+* **Transparency and cost management**. {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} consumption draws from {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} premium requests, which you can monitor through the {% data variables.product.github %} billing platform.
+* **Accelerated innovation**. Teams can validate ideas in hours instead of months, without relying on fragmented toolchains.
+
+### Billing
+
+Each natural-language prompt in {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} consumes four premium requests.
+See [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/concepts/billing/billing-for-spark).
+
+### Infrastructure
+
+The {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} development environment is powered by {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %}. If your enterprise disables {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %}, users can still access the {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} interface but won’t be able to open the underlying codespace.
+
+All sparks are deployed to Azure Container Apps (ACA).

+## About {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}
+
+{% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} allows users to build intelligent applications using natural-language prompts. {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} includes advanced controls and built-in design tools for customization. Once published, applications can be shared with teammates or deployed to production.
+
+For details about benefits, development experience, billing, and enterprise considerations, see [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/concepts/spark#enterprise-considerations).
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+* Your enterprise must be on a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan.
+* During the {% data variables.release-phases.public_preview %}, the organization or enterprise must have the **Opt in to preview features** setting enabled. See:
+  * [AUTOTITLE](/enterprise-cloud@latest/copilot/managing-copilot/managing-github-copilot-in-your-organization/managing-policies-for-copilot-in-your-organization#enabling-copilot-features-in-your-organization)

+## Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} for your {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} subscribers
+
+By default, {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} is **disabled** for users who receive a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} license from an enterprise-owned organization.
+
+You can enable {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} for your members on the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} policies page for your enterprise. See [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/managing-copilot/managing-copilot-for-your-enterprise/managing-policies-and-features-for-copilot-in-your-enterprise#defining-policies-for-your-enterprise).
+
+* **Enabled**: All users granted a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} license by any of your organizations can use {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}. Enable this if your enterprise wants consistent access across all organizations and is ready to roll out {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} broadly.
+* **Disabled**: No users granted a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} license by your organizations can use {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}. Choose this if {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} isn’t yet approved for use, for example, if your enterprise is still completing policy or security reviews.
+* **No policy**: Organization owners in each of your organizations decide whether {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} licensees can use {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}. Select this if you prefer a phased or opt-in adoption, where individual organizations can trial {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} before a broader rollout.
+
+### Next steps
+
+* If you selected **Enabled**, tell organization owners that these features are enabled for all members.
+* If you selected **No policy**, discuss member enablement with organization owners.

 While {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} is an extremely powerful tool, it may still make mistakes. These mistakes can be misunderstandings of your goals, or more simple syntax errors within your generated spark. You should always use {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}’s provided application preview to verify that your spark behaves as intended in different scenarios. If you are comfortable with code, it is also best practice to ensure the generated code is up to your code quality standards.

 ### Interpretation of user intent
 
 {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} is not always correct in its interpretation of your intent. You should always use {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %}’s provided preview to confirm accurate behavior within your spark.

However it may still struggle with complex or truly novel applications. {% data variables.product.prodname_spark_short %} will perform best on common/personal application scenarios (e.g. productivity tools, learning aids, life management utilities), and when the natural language instruction is provided in English.
