NeuralSeek and packaged AI assistants

Enterprise chat, search and support bots are bought per seat and run by the vendor. NeuralSeek is a platform you deploy, govern and control.

Key differences

Per-seat tools and a platform

Packaged assistants are good at what they were built for. They differ from NeuralSeek in a few ways that matter.

What you keep
A packaged assistant
The configuration and connectors live in the vendor's product. That suits a productivity tool.
NeuralSeek
A deployment and configuration you hold. Your agents, guardrails and knowledge base setup run in the environment you choose.
How far it reaches
A packaged assistant
Built for one job, such as meetings, employee support or internal search. Within that job it is usually very good.
NeuralSeek
Built for many jobs. Customers run hundreds of use cases on NeuralSeek, each with the same guardrails and answer logs.
Which model, and where
A packaged assistant
The vendor's model, on the vendor's infrastructure. Vendors usually commit to not training on your data.
NeuralSeek
Your choice of model for each step, on SaaS or fully isolated on-prem. NeuralSeek and its subprocessors never use customer data to train models.
As more tools arrive
A packaged assistant
Each tool brings its own contract, its own access to your documents, its own log format and its own permissions.
NeuralSeek
One connection layer, one set of guardrails and one log across every agent you build.

When to use each

Buy packaged when the job is narrow and internal. Use NeuralSeek when answers reach customers or records.

One defined job for staff
Meeting notes, IT questions, intranet search. A product built for that job does it well. Buy it.
Live this month, with no one to run it
A packaged tool with a login asks less of your team than a platform deployment.
Answers for customers and regulators
When an answer leaves the company, NeuralSeek grounds it in approved content, scores its confidence, masks sensitive data and logs it for review.

Keeping what works and adding NeuralSeek.

Do we have to remove our current assistants?
Keep the ones that work. Use them for one internal job each, and move customer-facing and regulated work onto NeuralSeek, where every answer is scored and logged.
Can NeuralSeek handle enterprise search?
Yes. Seek answers from your connected knowledge base with confidence scores and shows where each answer came from. Results can also feed an agent workflow.
Can you compare NeuralSeek with a specific product?
Yes. Request a demo and we will compare it with the product you are evaluating, against your own requirements.
