Microsoft Copilot vs AlpineAI / SwissGPT

Name: Microsoft Copilot vs AlpineAI / SwissGPT: agent-readable comparison
Creator: onAI

Published by onAI. onAI also sells one of the products compared here. Findings about other products link to public sources so you can check them; statements about onAI are marked as stated by onAI.

This comparison has 29 criteria with sourced findings for both products, including 29 that a second agent cross-checked for both. 50 criteria have a sourced finding for at least one product. "Sourced" findings passed publication validation: they are scoped, fresh and cite public resolved sources. "Agent cross-checked" findings also received a separate agent source pass, not necessarily a hands-on test. "Stated by onAI" marks the publisher's own statements about its product (evidence type vendor-statement), which cite no third-party source. Humans approve the rubric, templates and generator; they do not review every finding. No winner is declared. A missing sourced finding is not evidence that a capability is absent.

Models

MOD-01 Model catalogue and providers

Judgment rule: List each available model by provider and plan, including reasoning, fast and multimodal variants. Record whether the user picks the model, the product routes automatically, or both. A provider counts only if at least one of its current models is selectable on the scoped plan.

Microsoft Copilot

Agent cross-checked Support: partial

Commercial PowerPoint editing offers Auto, ChatGPT and Claude; this is not a catalogue for every Copilot chat or agent.

Availability: generally-available · Delivery: native
Scope: surfaces=Copilot in Microsoft 365 apps and Teams; version=Continuously updated commercial service, retrieved 2026-10-21; plan=Commercial Microsoft Copilot subscription: PowerPoint editing mode only; add_ons=Eligible Microsoft 365/PowerPoint subscription, Commercial Microsoft Copilot subscription, Anthropic subprocessor enabled by the enterprise administrator for Claude; deployment_mode=multi-tenant-saas; region=Commercial cloud; EU/EFTA tenant scope where stated, including Switzerland; no government-cloud generalisation; os=not specified.

Limitations

Scope is commercial PowerPoint editing, with regional/subscription availability limits; no tenant picker or multimodal fixture was observed.
Cowork and Studio roadmap launches are separate experiences and are excluded from this current-model finding.

KNOW-03 Enterprise connectors

Judgment rule: List each connector separately with plan, availability and setup owner: SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook, Teams, Google Drive, Gmail, Confluence, Jira, Notion, Box, Salesforce, ServiceNow, file shares. Record whether the vendor or a third party (or the customer via MCP) provides it, and whether it needs admin consent. A connector listed on a roadmap or partner page is `announced`. An on-prem connector or gateway proves access to local data, not a self-hosted platform (DATA-02).

Microsoft Copilot

Agent cross-checked Support: partial

Paid Copilot grounding supports synced and federated external sources; metered Copilot Chat agents have a narrower route.

Availability: generally-available · Delivery: native
Scope: surfaces=Microsoft Copilot paid work chat, Copilot in Microsoft 365 apps and Teams; version=Continuously updated commercial service, retrieved 2026-10-21; plan=Paid Microsoft Copilot add-on (Microsoft 365 Copilot in licensing docs), or Microsoft 365 E7; commercial tenant.

Limitations

This is not a blanket connector entitlement for included Copilot Chat. The licence matrix permits Studio/pay-as-you-go synced data in agents only and excludes federation.
External-service subscriptions/permissions and connector-specific regional rollout remain prerequisites.

microsoft_365 Which M365 sources (SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook, Teams) are connected? [supported]: Paid Copilot grounds on Microsoft Graph work content. Without that add-on, shared SharePoint/synced-connector data requires an eligible metered agent; ordinary Copilot Chat is not assigned equivalent grounding. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-privacy, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.
google_workspace Which Google sources are connected? [partial]: Google Drive is a synced connector for licensed Copilot grounding; the federated list includes Gmail for paid eligible users. Each source requires its own authorization. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-connectors-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-federated-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.
atlassian Confluence and Jira? [partial]: Confluence/Jira synced data can ground paid Copilot; their personal self-serve variants are limited preview.

KNOW-04 Permission-aware retrieval

Judgment rule: Using two test users, verify that a restricted document in the fixture tenant is never cited or summarised for the user without access, including after a permission change. Record whether permissions are enforced at query time by the source system, mirrored into an index, or not enforced. Record the propagation delay of a revocation.

Microsoft Copilot

Agent cross-checked Support: partial

Microsoft documents source-permission controls; the required restricted-document test was not run.

Limitations

All positive permission findings use the paid work-grounding route, not included Copilot Chat. Purview/SAM require their applicable entitlements.
No two-user restricted-document or revocation test; connector disable propagation is not proof of source-ACL revocation timing.

source_permissions_respected Are source permissions enforced per user? [supported]: In licensed Copilot work grounding, Graph data is limited to the requesting user's access; this was not tested. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-privacy, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.
enforcement_point Does the source system, a mirrored index or nothing enforce them? [supported]: Paid synced grounding filters item ACLs in Graph; paid federated access executes with the authenticated source-user identity. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-connectors-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-federated-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.

KNOW-05 Freshness and sync model

Judgment rule: Record live (federated) search versus a copied index, sync interval, deletion propagation, and where the index is stored. Edit and delete one fixture document and record when answers change. A copied index adds storage location to DATA-01.

Microsoft Copilot

Agent cross-checked Support: partial

Both copied Graph indexes and live MCP federation are documented.

Limitations

Copilot Chat without the add-on is not included as a general indexed/federated grounding entitlement.
No edit/delete propagation fixture; self-serve Confluence/Jira remains limited preview.

live_or_indexed Is content searched live or copied into an index? [supported]: Licensed Copilot can ground on synced Graph copies or query federated sources live without a separate external-content index. The licence matrix allows metered Chat agents to use synced data only. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-connectors-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-federated-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.
sync_interval How often does an index refresh? [partial]: For the limited-preview personal Confluence/Jira synced route, docs describe roughly15-minute incremental and seven-day full crawls; this is not a general federated or connector SLA. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-personal-sync-r2, microsoft-copilot:ms-connector-license-r2.
deletion_propagation How quickly does a deleted document disappear? [unknown]: How quickly does a deleted document disappear? Unverified after checking connector overview and personal-sync documentation; no edit/delete propagation fixture.

Swiss RIZ application hosting is consistently described. Green/RZO Swiss inference is a vendor security-page statement; a current contracted inference-site schedule is unverified because the July DPA does not list RZO. Storage, inference, support and optional search are scoped separately.

Availability: generally-available · Delivery: native
Scope: surfaces=AlpineAI platform browser client, AlpineAI API platform; version=Public infrastructure page and DPA Annex 3 dated 10 July 2026; no tenant contract inspected; plan=Current AlpineAI sector offer; contract-specific residency and secret-data supplement conditional on signature; add_ons=none stated; deployment_mode=not specified; region=Advertised Swiss application hosting; current contracted inference map unverified; DPA CH/EEA with conditional third-country processing and optional external search; os=not specified.

Limitations

RZO is described as colocation, not as a foreign model API. Its absence from the July annex is not evidence of overseas inference or unauthorised processing.
The currently contracted complete inference-site list, per-index/log/telemetry locations and exhaustive staff access countries remain unknown.

storage_region Where are chats, files and indexes stored? [partial]: The security page describes application/data storage on AlpineAI hardware at two Swiss RIZ sites. July DPA Annex 3 independently lists RIZ CH for platform hosting and support. Separate per-index/log topology and a tenant-specific deployment schedule were not established. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-security, swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-dpa.
inference_region Where do model calls run, per provider? [unknown]: The security page names Swiss Green and RZO GPU colocation on AlpineAI-owned/operated hardware without logical access by site operators. July DPA Annex 3 names Green and expressly describes pure colocation, but omits RZO. No newer public annex or contract-specific RZO authorisation was retrieved. The currently contracted complete inference-site map is therefore unknown; the marketing statement is not a verified current contract commitment.
backups_logs_region Where are backups, logs and telemetry? [partial]: July DPA Annex 3 lists cloudscale.ch CH for backup; Annex 2 describes daily offsite backups. This dated schedule does not establish every current log/telemetry or backup location. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-dpa.
support_access_region From where can vendor staff access data? [partial]: The dated annex assigns RIZ CH to customer support and EU Atlassian/Custify to helpdesk/account functions. Physical staff access countries are not fully mapped. A separately signed secret-data supplement requires Swiss services where secret data is in plaintext. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-dpa, swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.
swiss_hosting Is Swiss hosting available? [partial]: Swiss application hosting at RIZ is supported by both public sources. The full current inference-site inventory is withheld pending a current applicable schedule, so this is not an all-processing CH-residency assurance. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-security, swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-dpa.
residency_plan Which plan or option provides residency? [partial]: DPA 1.5 permits CH/EEA processing with conditional third-country safeguards. Optional Brave search is separately listed with US processing. The secret-data supplement, only when signed and applicable, narrows plaintext services including APIs to Switzerland. A current tenant-specific inference schedule is still missing. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:review2-dpa, swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.

Judgment rule: Record multi-tenant SaaS, dedicated single-tenant instance, deployment in the customer's cloud account, on-premise and air-gapped as separate options with plan and availability. Record which features are missing in each mode, who operates it, and the documented seat or contract threshold for each mode, which can differ from the enterprise plan threshold (e.g. dedicated SaaS from 2,000 seats, own cloud from 5,000). A local-network connector or gateway that reaches on-prem data from a vendor-hosted platform is KNOW-03, not on-premise deployment.

DATA-03 Training use and provider retention

Judgment rule: Record whether customer content trains vendor or provider models, by plan and default; zero-data-retention arrangements with model providers; abuse-monitoring retention and human review; and the model provider's terms that apply. A "no training" claim on a marketing page is `vendor-claimed` until the contract or DPA says so.

Microsoft Copilot

Agent cross-checked Support: partial

No-training assertions and provider exceptions are recorded separately from customer retention.

Limitations

No-training statements remain vendor assertions pending direct contract verification. Stored tenant chat history is distinct from provider retention.

vendor_training Does the vendor train on customer content? [partial]: Microsoft states commercial prompts, responses and Graph data do not train foundation models; the underlying DPA text was not inspected. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-no-training.
provider_training Do model providers train on it under this product's contracts? [partial]: Microsoft makes the same foundation-model statement; separate Data Retention model terms require their own review. Sources: microsoft-copilot:ms-no-training, microsoft-copilot:ms-anthropic.
provider_retention How long do model providers keep prompts, including for abuse monitoring? [partial]: Some Anthropic models explicitly retain data under separate Anthropic terms; ordinary eligible subprocessor models are described differently. No universal retention period is established.

Limitations

Ordinary-chat/provider retention and general staff-review practice outside the signed secret-data scope are not documented. DPA anonymised-data use must be read alongside the narrower no-training clause.

vendor_training Does the vendor train on customer content? [supported]: AGB 4.4 says customer inputs do not feed back into language-model development. DPA 2.4 separately permits anonymisation and use for service/product development; this is not a blanket prohibition on every secondary use. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:terms, swissgpt:swissgpt:dpa.
provider_training Do model providers train on it under this product's contracts? [partial]: Vendor says models run on AlpineAI hardware without foreign model APIs; a separate third-party model-provider training contract is not established. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:product.
provider_retention How long do model providers keep prompts, including for abuse monitoring? [partial]: Signed secrecy agreement forbids storing/logging AI API input and output for secret data. Ordinary web-chat and general API retention periods are unspecified. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.

DATA-09 Professional secrecy

Judgment rule: For professional secrecy holders (Berufsgeheimnisträger: lawyers, doctors, auditors, tax advisers) under § 203 StGB (DE) and Art. 321 StGB (CH), record whether the vendor signs a contractual secrecy undertaking or a § 203 agreement that binds its staff and its sub-processors; whether this comes as a dedicated offering or a paid add-on, and on which plan; who can access content in plain text (vendor staff, sub-processors, model providers); and the documentation provided. A DPA or a no-training clause alone is not a secrecy undertaking. Banking secrecy and FINMA outsourcing belong to DATA-06, not here. Record contract facts, not a legal assessment.

AlpineAI publishes a separate bilateral undertaking for Swiss official, professional and other statutory secret data. It binds staff and subcontractors, restricts plaintext access and requires Swiss plaintext services when signed. Plan eligibility, any supplement fee and German § 203 coverage remain unverified.

Availability: generally-available · Delivery: native
Scope: surfaces=AlpineAI platform browser client, AlpineAI API platform; version=Supplement printed 30 March 2026; plan=AlpineAI platform under a signed main contract and supplementary secrecy agreement; eligible plan tiers unpublished; add_ons=Signed supplementary secrecy agreement; price unpublished; deployment_mode=not specified; region=Swiss statutory secrecy; services exposing secret data in plaintext, including APIs, exclusively in Switzerland; os=not specified.

Limitations

The supplement is conditional on both signatures and processing Swiss legally secret data. Its Swiss Art. 320 ff. reference is not evidence of a German § 203 agreement or a legal suitability assessment for a particular profession.
Plan eligibility, any supplement fee, executed customer agreements and the actual downstream staff/subcontractor agreements remain unverified.

secrecy_undertaking Does the vendor sign a secrecy undertaking or § 203 StGB / Art. 321 StGB agreement covering its own staff? [supported]: The public two-party signature template supplements the platform main contract and DPA. It takes effect on the last signature and only while the customer processes data subject to Swiss official, professional or other statutory secrecy (example: Art. 320 ff. Swiss StGB). Section 3 requires equivalent contractual obligations for AlpineAI staff who may access plaintext. This establishes a published undertaking for signature, not an inspected executed customer agreement or an express German § 203 instrument. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.
subprocessor_coverage Does the undertaking extend to its sub-processors, and is that documented? [supported]: Section 3 requires AlpineAI to impose at least equivalent contractual obligations on its subcontractors and staff who may access secret data in plaintext. The DPA safeguards also apply to secret data, with the stronger secrecy supplement taking priority. Actual downstream signed agreements were not public and were not inspected. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.
secrecy_offering Is it a dedicated offering or add-on, and on which plan? [partial]: The security page offers corporate customers an additional secrecy agreement; the public template is separate from the main contract and DPA and requires both parties to sign. No named eligible package, paid add-on tariff or general supplement fee was established. The annual assurance evidence is promised without extra cost, which does not establish that the agreement itself is free. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:security, swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy.
content_access Who can access content in plain text: vendor staff, sub-processors, model providers? [supported]: Under the signed supplement, AlpineAI and subcontractor staff may access plaintext only on a need-to-know basis plus individual prior customer approval, an unavoidable urgent business-continuity emergency, or a binding Swiss authority order. AlpineAI must take reasonable measures to prevent third-party plaintext access. AI API inputs and outputs must not be stored or logged, human abuse monitoring with plaintext access is prohibited, and plaintext services including APIs must remain in Switzerland. The security page separately says AlpineAI operates the models and colocation providers have no logical access to systems or data. These are contract terms and vendor disclosures, not a hands-on verification of every data flow. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy, swissgpt:swissgpt:security.
secrecy_documentation Is the offering publicly documented (contract template, data-flow description, professional-body guidance)? [supported]: A public two-page contract template, printed 30 March 2026, sets scope, precedence, secrecy duties, staff/subcontractor flow-down, plaintext access, Swiss processing, API retention and signature blocks. Section 3 also promises annual assurance evidence covering secret-data processing at no extra cost and a customer audit right at customer expense. The security page explains the supplementary agreement. No executed customer contract was inspected. Sources: swissgpt:swissgpt:secrecy, swissgpt:swissgpt:security.

Where model usage is separately billed, each message has 3,000 input and 600 output tokens, giving 990k input plus 198k output per user/month. At 200/1,000/5,000 users this is 198m/990m/4.95bn input and 39.6m/198m/990m output per month. All three seat counts require an unpublished enterprise/custom price; no quote was requested. CHF and EUR ex-VAT totals, fixed charges, variable charges and add-ons remain unknown. FX dated 2026-10-20: EUR 1 = CHF 0.9237 and USD 1.1215; CHF to EUR divide by 0.9237, USD to EUR divide by 1.1215, source ECB. No numeric conversion or proxy model tariff is applied because there is no applicable public enterprise base/usage rate.
