Comparison
SwissGPT alternative: onAI with DeepL
SwissGPT is AlpineAI’s AI platform for healthcare, public administration and universities. Choose onAI for DeepL document translation and Image Studio, from EUR 17 per user per month including EUR 5 of model use.
Match the deployment to your requirements
onAI runs on servers in Europe and your contracting party is Swiss. Request a dedicated server or run onAI on your own servers if that is how your organisation needs to operate the application.
SwissGPT’s application runs at RIZ in Switzerland. Its DPA permits processing in Switzerland and the EEA, with conditional third-country processing; optional search is a separate external data flow. The complete current contractual map of inference sites remains unconfirmed. Ask for the schedule applicable to your order if processing location determines approval.

Translate documents with layout and company terminology
onAI uses DeepL for document translation with the layout preserved. Company glossaries keep the terminology you specify, and you can choose formal or informal address and adjust style and tone.
SwissGPT translates text in its platform and Outlook add-in, including email in Swiss national languages and English. Whole-document layout preservation, a dedicated translation engine and company glossaries remain unconfirmed here.

Agree the help your team needs
onAI gives you a direct line to the team in German and English. Onboarding and training are included in the company fixed price; service levels and response times are agreed in the contract. If you need custom agents or workflows, we build them as a service.
AlpineAI offers implementation help, onsite training, workshops and a six-lesson e-learning course for its sector customers. Inclusion in the licence price is not confirmed. Support requests go through its portal, with email as a fallback when that portal is unavailable. Ask which services and response times your Enterprise offer includes.

Where onAI fits better
Choose onAI if your rollout needs everyday AI tools with direct help from the team.
Translate documents and create images
Use DeepL for documents that need their layout and company terminology preserved. Image Studio puts models from OpenAI, Google, Black Forest Labs and xAI in one place, with the cost visible before generation.
Control access and spending
Admins enable features such as Image Studio, translation and web search for each group. Set cost limits per organisation and person, and review usage by model, feature and person.
Where SwissGPT fits better
SwissGPT is worth shortlisting if you work in healthcare, public administration or higher education and need its Outlook workflow or Swiss German meeting transcription.
Draft and summarise inside Outlook
The add-in reads and summarises messages and threads, drafts replies and translates email. Standard and Premium include it. Before rolling it out, confirm the Microsoft licence/version and administrator deployment requirements; those prerequisites are not specified in the public offer.
Premium Listener for Swiss German meetings
Listener records audio or accepts audio files, transcribes Swiss German and produces minutes or summaries. It is included in Premium; Enterprise inclusion depends on the order. Confirm that scope if meeting documentation is the main reason you are buying.
A published Swiss secrecy supplement
AlpineAI publishes a bilateral supplement for Swiss official, professional and other legally secret data. When signed and applicable, it binds staff and subcontractors and requires Swiss services where secret data is in plaintext. Plan eligibility, any fee and German § 203 coverage remain unconfirmed.
What onAI could do better
A deliberately narrower feature set
onAI focuses on tools employees use every day and has fewer features than some platforms. We build custom agents and workflows as a service. Test specialised processes with us before deciding on a company rollout.

Book a demoQuestions you might have
- Can we use the small-plan price for 200 employees?
- Standard and Premium cover up to nine individual licences; Enterprise starts at ten with a separate quote. Sector and billing-period prices differ, and tax treatment and usage charges are not fully specified. Compare an Enterprise offer with onAI’s offer for the same team and expected use.
- Does SwissGPT use our input to train models?
- AlpineAI’s terms prohibit model training on customer inputs. API zero retention applies only when processing data protected by Swiss statutory secrecy under the signed supplement. onAI does not use your data to train AI models and only uses providers that exclude it by contract.
- Can our team try onAI before deciding?
- After a personal demo, your team receives trial access. Bring typical documents, email tasks and translation examples. If you choose the company fixed price, onboarding and training are included.
