Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Copilotly
- Copilotly explicitly disclaims that its legal, medical, and financial copilots are not a substitute for licensed professional advice, which limits its use for anything requiring accountable expert sign-off.
- The free plan caps usage at 3 copilots and 50 messages per day, pushing most real usage onto the paid Pro tier.
- It relies on third-party foundation models (GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek) rather than proprietary domain models, so answer quality is bounded by those underlying models.
- There is no published documentation site or API, limiting integration options for developers or teams wanting to build on top of it.
- Safari support is listed as 'coming soon' rather than available, so macOS/iOS Safari users are currently unsupported in-browser.
Fastly
- Bandwidth is priced per region, and delivery to India, Africa and South Korea is $0.28 per GB against $0.12 in North America and Europe
- The same traffic therefore costs more than twice as much depending on where the audience is, which is invisible until the bill arrives
- The free allowance is 100 GB of bandwidth and 1M requests a month
- Requests are billed separately from bandwidth, at $0.01 per 10,000 above the first million
- High volume rates past 50 TB are not published and require contacting sales
