Hosted in Germany from day one, at the list price
amaiko is hosted in Germany on amaiko’s own infrastructure, and the AI processes your data inside the EU only. Every amaiko workspace runs there. You don’t request it, and it costs nothing extra. amaiko is GDPR-compliant, and your data does not sit in the Microsoft cloud.
Glean runs its hosted tenants on Google Cloud. Its region documentation says: “The default region for tenants hosted by Glean is us-central1”, which is Iowa. Other regions are available if you ask. Glean’s preferred EMEA region is the Netherlands. Frankfurt is on its list of non-preferred regions, and for Glean-hosted tenants in those regions Glean writes: “Your subscription cost will be higher”. Glean also offers a Customer Hosted model that runs inside your own GCP or AWS account.
For your company that means: with Glean, the location of your data is something you negotiate into the contract, and hosting in Germany raises the price. With amaiko it is the default, at the published price.
In Teams from the start, without a rollout project
amaiko lives in Microsoft Teams, in the chat your team already has open. It prepares a morning briefing, triages the inbox with Active Inbox, and reads and drafts across Outlook, calendar, OneDrive, SharePoint, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. It remembers how each person works, and overnight it consolidates conversations into company knowledge. The marketplace adds HubSpot, Dynamics 365 Business Central, Personio, Jira, DATEV and more. amaiko brings its own Teams app: your IT creates no bot in your Azure subscription and copies no secrets between admin portals. The free trial starts with a Microsoft 365 work account or your company email.
Glean’s own comparison with Copilot gives the deployment effort as “Connect data sources over days to weeks with 1 to 2 dedicated staff” and lists “Connector configuration, change management” as hidden costs. Getting Glean into Teams is a separate job. Glean’s Teams admin guide needs admin access to four portals: the Azure portal to create an Azure Bot, the Teams Developer Portal, the Teams Admin Center and the Glean Admin Console. After publishing, “it takes approximately 24 hours for the Glean app to appear in the Teams store”, and the bot runs in “Personal only” scope.
For your team that means one or two people on a project for days to weeks before anyone asks a question. With amaiko nobody is assigned to a rollout, and the first question goes into a chat window that is already open.
Price: published, per seat, tokens unlimited
amaiko costs €41.58 per user per month billed annually (€499 per user per year), or €49.90 billed monthly, from five seats. Tokens are unlimited, and the first connector is included. The price is on the pricing page, and you can buy without a sales call.
Glean publishes no price list; you get a price through a demo request. Its own comparison with Copilot gives the typical cost as “Approximately $50 per user per month, plus approximately $15 for AI features”. On top of the seat, Glean’s Core Suite documentation lists deep research, meeting notes, slide generation and voice as billed “With Model Hub Usage”, at per-token model rates.
Two companies, with 10 and 25 people, calculated with Glean’s own typical figure, without and with the AI add-on, and with no Model Hub usage at all. Glean’s figures are in US dollars, as Glean publishes them. All prices net, amaiko billed annually.
| amaiko | Glean (Glean’s typical cost) | |
|---|---|---|
| 10 people: per month | €415.80 | $500 to $650 |
| year one | €4,990 | $6,000 to $7,800 |
| three years | €14,970 | $18,000 to $23,400 |
| 25 people: per month | €1,039.50 | $1,250 to $1,625 |
| year one | €12,475 | $15,000 to $19,500 |
| three years | €37,425 | $45,000 to $58,500 |
Your company may also sit outside Glean’s usual market. In its own comparison with ChatGPT Enterprise, Glean describes its typical customer as “Typically 1,000+ employees”. amaiko is built for companies with 10 to 500. For your budget that means a fixed line per seat that you can read off our pricing page today, instead of a quote you wait for plus a model bill that moves with usage.
