Everyday life with Copilot & Co. - where things get stuck
At first glance, Microsoft Copilot, Notion AI and other standard solutions appear to be the perfect answer to the AI question in SMEs. But if you take a closer look, you quickly recognise the limitations: Although the tools deliver results, they are generic, have no real memory and are not tailored to the specific requirements of SMEs.

Strengths of common AI tools
Of course, standard AI solutions have their justification:
- Microsoft Copilot scores with deep Office integration.
- Notion AI offers a modern interface and fast text creation.
- Search and knowledge tools such as Glean or Guru help you find information.
But for SMEs that rely on efficiency and knowledge retention, there is still a major deficit.
Limits for SMEs
- No personal reference: Everyone gets the same answers - regardless of their role.
- No corporate memory: Without RAG knowledge remains fragmented.
- Isolated solutions: Many tools only work within their platform and are not deeply anchored in the company's day-to-day operations.
This leads to frustration, duplication of work and missed potential - as we also see with Knowledge silos have described.

- Cross-Agent Collaborationso that information flows automatically.
- Native Teams integration - where work is being done anyway.

Conclusion: generalist vs. specialist
Standard AI tools are like all-purpose knives - practical, but often not the best choice for complex requirements. SMEs need specialised solutions that preserve knowledge, offer security and make everyday life noticeably easier. This is exactly where Amaiko makes the difference.
