Top 5 AI Assistants for Microsoft Teams (2026)

Microsoft sells its AI for Teams in layers, and its own documentation shows where each one stops. Teams Premium, at €8.70 per user per month billed annually, is built around meetings and calls. Intelligent recap needs Teams Premium or a Copilot licence, and audio recap and the Facilitator agent need Copilot. Copilot’s memory is stored “in the user’s Exchange mailbox in a hidden folder”. Systems outside Microsoft 365 are reached through Copilot connectors and agents your company builds in Copilot Studio, with agents billed pay-as-you-go. And with flex routing, on by default for EU tenants created after 25 March 2026, Copilot’s LLM inferencing “may occur in the United States, Canada, or Australia during times of peak demand”.

For a company that runs on Teams, that adds up to licences matched to features, knowledge kept per person and an AI whose processing location depends on a tenant setting. Here are five AI assistants for Teams. For the direct head-to-head, see amaiko vs Microsoft Teams.

1. amaiko: AI that remembers, inside Teams

amaiko lives in Microsoft Teams, in the chat your company already uses. There is no separate app tab, no browser extension and no new tool to learn.

amaiko builds a persistent corporate memory. Every night it consolidates your team’s conversations into lasting company knowledge: projects, customers, decisions and who knows what. Knowledge is personal, team-wide or company-wide, and team knowledge is checked against live Teams membership on every access. When someone leaves, what they knew stays. amaiko teams spend 35% less time searching, and new hires get up to speed 57% faster.

That memory feeds a multi-agent network: specialists for email, calendar, documents, research and your business systems, from HubSpot and Dynamics 365 Business Central to Personio, Jira and DATEV. You pick them from the marketplace; nobody has to build an agent first. Custom connectors are available on request.

And amaiko works before you ask. Active Inbox reads incoming email and flags what needs attention, flagged emails become to-dos, and a morning briefing is ready when your day starts. Meeting notes come with the Meeting Notetaker add-on, €61.57 per user per month all-in billed annually, and every meeting becomes part of the company knowledge amaiko answers from.

amaiko is GDPR-compliant and hosted in Germany on its own infrastructure, not in the Microsoft cloud, with AI processing only inside the EU. Details are on the security page. It costs €41.58 per user per month billed annually (€499 per user per year), or €49.90 monthly, with unlimited tokens. See pricing.

2. Microsoft 365 Copilot

Microsoft 365 Copilot works in Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Copilot Business costs €18.20 per user per month billed annually, for up to 300 users, discounted to €15.60 in the first year for subscriptions bought by 31 December 2026; Microsoft 365 Copilot costs €26. Both need a qualifying Microsoft 365 plan. For EU tenants created after 25 March 2026, flex routing is on by default, and Copilot’s AI may then run in the US, Canada or Australia at peak demand.

3. Read.ai

Read.ai is a meeting assistant that joins Teams meetings as a participant. Its Microsoft page says you view the finished meeting report “by visiting the Reports page in your Read Dashboard”. Its pricing page lists Pro at $15 and Enterprise+ at $29.75 per user per month billed annually; SAML single sign-on and SCIM come only with Enterprise+, from 5 licences. Read’s Security & Privacy Overview says captured data is stored in AWS us-east-1 in Northern Virginia.

4. Cassidy

Cassidy is a platform for building AI assistants and workflows on your company knowledge. Its pricing page lists a Starter plan with 3 seats and 10,000 AI credits a month and a Business plan with custom seats and credits, without prices. AI tasks use credits, and its FAQ lists “Slack and Microsoft Teams deployments” among the benefits of the Enterprise plan.

5. Dust

Dust is a platform for building AI agents on company data. Its pricing page shows a Pro seat at €24 per user per month billed yearly, €30 monthly, with 8,000 credits per seat per month; the Business plan lists US and EU data residency. When the credits run out, usage continues only through overage an admin has enabled, up to a cap. Dust answers in Teams through a bot that an admin uploads as a custom app, and its agents are built by your team.
