GoSearch enterprise search answering a question across company tools

Enterprise search

GoSearch

GoSearch connects to hundreds of tools, including the Microsoft suite, with no custom development. Employees search across their full stack and get AI answers directly inside Microsoft Teams.

Copilot works within the Microsoft ecosystem, but connecting external apps requires custom integrations. For most teams, meaningful third-party coverage takes months of engineering work.

GoSearch AI chat assistant with tool use and cited answers

AI chat assistant

GoSearch

GoSearch supports Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and other leading LLMs. Zero Data Retention agreements with every LLM provider mean query data is never stored, trained on, or reused.

Copilot runs on a fixed set of LLMs. Organizations can't select a different model based on task, cost, or compliance, and have limited visibility into how query data is handled across model interactions.

GoSearch no-code agents for common team workflows

Agents

GoSearch

GoSearch includes a no-code, natural language agent builder that doesn't require development resources or additional licenses. Agents are accessible directly inside Microsoft Teams.

Building agents and deploying them in external channels requires both engineering resources and additional Microsoft subscriptions.

GoSearch visual no-code workflow builder

Workflows

GoSearch

GoSearch orchestrates multiple AI agents across 100+ connected applications with a visual, no-code workflow builder. Teams can automate multi-step workflows from a natural language interface.

Copilot workflows are closely tied to the Microsoft ecosystem. Building often involves additional Microsoft services and licensing.

Frequently asked questions

GoSearch is an agentic AI platform for search, chat, and workflow automation across your entire tech stack, connecting to SharePoint and Teams alongside Salesforce, GitHub, ServiceNow, and hundreds of other tools out of the box. Copilot works best inside M365 and needs custom development for third-party reach.

GoSearch also lets organizations choose their own LLM, deploys in a single session instead of weeks, and its no-code agents can take action across systems rather than just answer questions.

Yes. GoSearch covers the core use cases Copilot is purchased for, including AI-powered search, knowledge retrieval, and agentic workflows, while extending them to tools well beyond the Microsoft ecosystem. Organizations that haven’t yet bought Copilot licenses often find GoSearch handles their needs without the prerequisite M365 add-on cost.

Those already using Copilot can run GoSearch alongside it, using Copilot for deep M365 tasks like drafting in Word or summarizing Outlook threads, and GoSearch for cross-system search and action across the rest of their stack.

Yes. GoSearch complements the Microsoft ecosystem. It integrates natively with Teams and works alongside M365 tools, adding cross-system search and agentic capability for everything outside Microsoft that Copilot doesn’t reach as effectively.

Yes. GoSearch has a native Teams integration, giving users access to enterprise search, AI answers, custom agents, and agentic workflows directly within Teams, without requiring a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.

GoSearch supports hundreds of tools including Confluence, Salesforce, Jira, ServiceNow, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Asana, Google Drive, and more. It also supports Custom MCP Connectors for proprietary internal systems and any MCP-compatible API. Visit our Integrations page to see our full connector library.
