Langdock

Langdock isn't another AI chat wrapper. It's an enterprise adoption platform designed to get every employee using AI safely—Merck's 33,000 monthly active users prove it's not just talk. The model-agnostic approach means you're never locked into one provider, and you can switch models as pricing or capabilities shift. Where Langdock shines is governance and compliance. The governance add-on (free until 2027) bakes policy checks into agent creation, flagging non-compliant updates before they go live. For EU companies subject to GDPR and the AI Act, this is huge. Add SSO, SCIM, on-prem deployment, and certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2), and it's built for regulated industries. But it's not cheap. The Business Max seat at €99/user/month is pricey, and while the Standard seat at €25 is reasonable, it doesn't include AI model usage—you pay extra per token. Workflow add-ons start at €539/month for 40k runs, which adds up fast for heavy automators. Compared to a tool like Glean AI, Langdock is more about governance and less about knowledge retrieval. Glean focuses on enterprise search, while Langdock centers on safe agent deployment and compliance. If you need a simple AI chat for a small team, ChatGPT Team ($25/user/month) or Microsoft Copilot might be simpler and cheaper. We'd reach for Langdock when you have 100+ users, a compliance officer asking about the AI Act, and a need to deploy custom agents across departments. Skip it if you're a solo developer who just wants an API key—Anthropic or OpenAI directly will be easier. The recent Langdock for Excel integration is a smart move, putting AI where business users already live. Coupled with Claude Sonnet 5 and Agent Evals, the platform is evolving fast. Just keep an eye on the total cost—governance won't be free forever.
