Langdock vs Microsoft Copilot

Langdock

Langdock sells the thing European enterprises actually need before they can roll out AI: one assistant across the company, hosted in the EU, with admin controls, audit and no single-model lock-in. The customer list (Merck, BASF, Der Spiegel) and the compliance certifications back that up. The pricing is where to look closely — the EUR 25 seat is only the base, and workflows, governance and API tokens are three separate meters on top.

Pros

• +Model-agnostic, so the underlying provider can change without a migration
• +EU hosting with ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance
• +Cloud or on-premise deployment, plus custom branding
• +Chat, agents, workflows, integrations and API in one platform
• +Web, iOS and Android clients, and a 7-day trial with no card

Cons

• −Four separate meters: seats, workflow runs, governance and API tokens
• −The workflow add-on starts at EUR 539/month, far above the seat price
• −Governance is free only until January 2027, then EUR 3.50 per user per month
• −Priced in euros, so the dollar cost moves with the exchange rate
• −Enterprise pricing above 1,000 users requires a sales conversation

Microsoft Copilot

Copilot is the sensible default for people who live in Windows, Edge and Microsoft 365: it is already installed, it is free for ordinary use, and paying a Microsoft 365 subscription you may already have unlocks it inside Word and Excel. Judged purely as a chatbot it trails ChatGPT and Gemini on depth and features, so power users who are not tied to Office should pick on model quality, not on the taskbar button.

Pros

• +Free tier with web-grounded answers, image generation, file and photo understanding
• +Native apps on Windows, Mac, iOS and Android plus Edge, with one account carrying the conversation across them
• +Upgrade path reuses Microsoft 365 plans most households already pay for, from $9.99 a month
• +Clear consumer privacy and health-data policies published alongside the terms

Cons

• −Free usage is explicitly capacity-dependent, so limits move without notice
• −The Copilot name covers several different products, and the consumer one is the least capable
• −Family plan grants the AI features to the subscription owner only, not to the other five members
• −Copilot Pro was retired and folded into Microsoft 365 Premium, so older guides and price quotes are stale
