amaiko vs Poe: Every Model for You vs Business AI for Your Team (2026)

Your company’s data, under a consumer’s terms

amaiko is built for company data. It is GDPR-compliant, hosted in Germany on amaiko’s own infrastructure, and AI processing stays inside the EU. Your company can export its data at any time.

Poe is licensed to people. Its terms of service grant “a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use Poe”, give Quora “a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, and perpetual license” to use your content to provide and improve Poe, put disputes under Californian law, and cap Quora’s liability at what you paid in the previous twelve months. Poe’s privacy policy names Quora, Inc. as data controller and says chats and uploaded files go to the AI model providers, while developers of third-party bots “may view and store your chats on their servers to train their models”. Its own advice: “avoid sharing sensitive personal information”. Quora’s privacy policy adds that Quora is headquartered in the US and may transfer personal data out of the EEA, relying on Standard Contractual Clauses.

For your company that means: when a colleague pastes a customer email or a contract clause into Poe, it is handled under the terms that colleague accepted as an individual, not under an agreement your company signed.

Knowledge your company keeps, not memory in personal accounts

amaiko learns how each person works and consolidates your team’s conversations into lasting company knowledge overnight. What one colleague works out becomes available to the next, and it stays with the company when someone leaves.

Poe’s privacy center describes a memory feature for one account. It generates no memory from group chats, and data you delete from a chat “may persist in the background summaries”. Other users cannot read your chats unless you share them, and in a shared subscription the paying subscriber sees only members’ aggregate point usage, by Poe’s terms of sale.

For your team that means: whatever ten people work out in Poe stays in ten personal accounts, and the company paying for them can’t open any of them.

Where you work: Teams, not another app

amaiko runs in Microsoft Teams, where your team already works. It reads and drafts across Outlook, calendar, OneDrive, SharePoint, OneNote, Word, Excel and PowerPoint, with each person signed in on their own account. It works without being asked: a morning briefing, email triage in Active Inbox. Your IT gets sign-in through Microsoft Entra ID, and team knowledge stays with the team’s current members.

Poe is its own destination: poe.com and Poe’s own apps. For your team that means one more window, and every question starts with copying context out of Teams and into Poe.

Models: the right one for the job

Poe offers far more models: its home page lists GPT, Claude, Grok, Kimi “and thousands of others”. amaiko picks the model for the task, from GPT-6 and Claude Sonnet.

For your team that means: nobody has to pick from a catalogue before asking a question, and the model that answers already knows your mailbox, your files and your company’s knowledge.

Price: one number per seat, no points

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.

Poe’s plans page, as shown in Germany, lists five personal plans, net of tax: 10,000 points a day for €57.49 a year, then 660,000, 1.65 million, 3.3 million and 8.25 million points a month for €229.99, €574.99, €1,149.99 and €2,874.99 a year. Every chat spends points at the model’s own rate; more cost $30 per million.

Two companies, each person on their own annual plan. Poe calls Plus the plan to “write essays, code basics, create content” and Pro the one to “work with large files, build apps”. All prices net.

Poe’s Plus plan costs less per person than amaiko. It buys 660,000 points a month for one person’s chats; when they run out, the choice is a bigger plan or add-on points. Cheaper still is a shared subscription, where every member can spend up to 100% of one person’s points and, by Poe’s help centre, the only way to cap one member is to remove them. amaiko’s price stays users × €499 a year, however much your team asks.

Questions to ask Poe before you sign

Get the answers in writing. Ours is under each one.

1. Will Quora sign a data processing agreement with our company, and act as our processor rather than as controller? amaiko: amaiko is GDPR-compliant; ask us for the agreement in the demo.
2. Which model providers and bot developers receive our chats and files, in which countries, and for how long? amaiko: Hosted in Germany on amaiko’s own infrastructure, AI processing exclusively in the EU.
3. When an employee leaves, who owns their chats, files and memory? amaiko: Knowledge is consolidated in your company’s workspace, and you can export your data at any time.
4. How do we cap one person’s usage without removing them? amaiko: Tokens are unlimited at one price per seat, so one person’s usage does not change the bill.
5. What do we pay in year three for 25 people, and what happens when the points run out? amaiko: Users × €499, every year.
6. How does Poe reach our Outlook, SharePoint and Teams chats, and under whose permissions? amaiko: It runs in Teams and reads Microsoft 365 with each person’s own sign-in.
