The comparison

Faster than building it yourself. More tailored than general tools.

Many have tried Copilot or ChatGPT and got thin answers. Others have built it themselves, with in-house developers, a consultant or an agency, and waited for months. We sit between the two.

The short answer

  • General tools answer straight away, but do not know your products, your prices or your history.
  • Building it yourself turns out exactly as you want, but takes months and leaves a system someone has to maintain.
  • We train the solution on your data, are live in weeks and stay on.

Side by side

Ready to use, trained on your data.

All three routes work, and which one is right depends on what you need. We have compared on what matters day to day: how fast you get results, whether the answers come from your data with a source, what it takes from you, and what is left when the project is over.

The choice

What suits you?

General tools are enough if

The questions are about language, not about your products. You write texts, summarise meetings and translate. The answer needs no source.

Building it yourself is right if

The need is so unique that nothing ready-made fits, and you have your own people who can own, update and maintain the solution over time, not just build it. Count on months. The checklist for what it takes is in the guide AI that lasts.

We fit if

The questions come from customers and colleagues and the answers sit in your systems, documents and history. You want to be live in weeks. You want to use it, not run a project.

A working day

The same enquiry, three routes.

A quote request for 40 cylinders comes in at 07:42.

With a general tool

The salesperson pastes in the email and gets a polite reply with no price, stock status or part number. The rest the salesperson looks up alone. The quote goes out in the afternoon.

If you build it yourselves

In six months the salesperson gets a draft. Then the real work starts: keeping prices and products up to date, making sure the web chat and the email give the same answer, and that someone can take over if the person who built it leaves.

With Gaide

The draft with the right products, stock status and price sits ready in the case. The salesperson reviews and sends. Hours become minutes.
