Teams: where amaiko lives and where Notion AI searches
amaiko lives in Microsoft Teams, in the chat your company already works in. There is no separate app tab, no browser extension and no new tool to learn. From that chat it reads and drafts across Outlook, calendar, OneDrive, SharePoint, Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and its marketplace adds HubSpot, Dynamics 365 Business Central, Personio, Jira, Confluence, DATEV and more.
Notion AI, in Notion’s own words, “lives in the same place as your project plans, tasks, and everything else you store in Notion”. Notion’s Teams connector lets Notion AI search your Teams messages, and the question is asked in Notion. Setting it up takes a Microsoft admin with the Global Administrator or Privileged Role Administrator role plus a Notion workspace owner. The connector reaches messages from one year before setup, the first sync can take up to 72 hours, and new messages in public channels can take up to 3 hours to become searchable. In Teams itself, a Notion bot delivers Notion notifications such as mentions and comments. For your team that means the conversation happens in Teams and the AI that can search it is in another app.
Company knowledge that builds itself
amaiko turns the conversations your team has with it into lasting company knowledge. Every night it consolidates what it learned: projects, customers, decisions and who knows what. Knowledge is captured and shared, so when someone leaves, what they knew stays. amaiko teams spend 35% less time searching, and new hires get up to speed 57% faster.
Notion AI answers from the pages in your Notion workspace, the apps you connect and the web. Notion Agent’s personal memory is an Instructions page that applies to one person’s agent, and it adds to that page when you tell it to. For your company that means Notion AI knows what someone has already written into Notion or into a connected app.
Work that is done before anyone asks
amaiko’s Active Inbox reads incoming email and flags what needs attention, and flagged emails become to-dos. The morning briefing is ready when your day starts. Both are part of the plan, and nobody has to build them.
Notion’s help center says “Notion Agent is on-demand, whereas Custom Agents are autonomous”. A Custom Agent runs on instructions, triggers and access that someone in your workspace sets up: a schedule, an event in Notion or a message in Slack. An inbox agent for Outlook is one of them, built through a Mail connection. Custom Agents run on Notion credits, $10 per 1,000 monthly credits after a free trial, and when the workspace runs out of credits they pause automatically. For your company that means each automation needs an author and a credit budget.
Hosting: Germany for every workspace
amaiko is hosted in Germany on its own infrastructure, and the AI processes your data inside the EU only. Every workspace runs there, with no request and no surcharge. amaiko is GDPR-compliant. Details are on the security page.
Notion’s data residency page says workspace data remains hosted in the United States until Notion confirms a migration. EU data residency in Frankfurt, with backups in Ireland, is for Enterprise customers and covers data at rest: page content, files and the search index. Account and usage data, Notion Mail and Calendar, beta services and data processed by Notion’s subprocessors, the LLM providers included, are outside it, and Notion “will continue to store and process all categories of data in the United States and other international locations”. Notion AI runs on models hosted by Notion and by providers such as Anthropic and OpenAI. On Business those providers retain data for up to 30 days; zero retention is an Enterprise feature. For your data protection officer that means the answer depends on the Notion plan and on which data the question is about.
Price: what the seat includes
amaiko costs €41.58 per user per month billed annually (€499 per user per year), €49.90 billed monthly, from five seats, with unlimited tokens. See pricing.
Notion AI comes with the Business plan at $20 per member per month billed annually; Free and Plus get only a limited trial. That seat is cheaper than amaiko’s. Its AI runs within a usage allowance measured over a six-hour window and over the month. Once a person uses it up, Notion Agent, image generation and page translation pause until the window resets, or until the next billing cycle for the monthly window, unless an admin lets the workspace spend Notion credits, a setting that is off by default. Premium models, Custom Agents and Workers spend credits every time: $10 per 1,000 credits bought monthly, $13 per 1,000 bought annually.
Two companies, amaiko and Notion Business billed annually:
| amaiko | Notion Business | |
|---|---|---|
| 10 people: per month | €415.80 | $200 |
| year one | €4,990 | $2,400 |
| three years | €14,970 | $7,200 |
| 25 people: per month | €1,039.50 | $500 |
| year one | €12,475 | $6,000 |
| three years | €37,425 | $18,000 |
amaiko prices are net. The Notion figures are seats only, in US dollars as Notion publishes them. Credits for Custom Agents, premium models and usage beyond the allowance come on top, and EU data residency needs the Enterprise plan, which Notion prices on request. For your budget that means a seat price plus a credit line that moves with usage, while amaiko’s seat includes unlimited tokens.
