fluado vs AgentWorks — A Seat-Priced Workspace vs Agents Inside Your Systems

You searched for "fluado vs AgentWorks." Both are EU companies, both run infrastructure in Germany, and both talk about EU AI Act compliance. So the difference isn't where the servers are. It's where the work happens, what the price is attached to, and who holds the deployer record.

What does AgentWorks actually give you?

AgentWorks is a self-serve workspace that bundles chat, agents, workflows and knowledge, priced per seat. It ships a catalogue of 50+ ready-to-deploy agents — SEO content, lead nurture, candidate screening, invoice processing, contract review — and you pick from the catalogue, choose the model, set up human-in-the-loop approvals, and run them from that workspace. AgentWorks operates the stack itself: your data stays in the EU, on infrastructure the company runs in Germany. On the Enterprise tier it also offers advanced agents custom-coded by its own engineers. The legal entity is AgentWorks B.V., based in the Netherlands.

So the question isn't whether anyone will write a custom agent for you. It's where that agent lives afterwards, and who carries it.

What does fluado do differently?

fluado starts from your process and runs inside the systems your team already uses. A product specification arrives in Outlook — the agent reads it, validates it against your quality standards in SharePoint, flags exceptions, and routes the result to the right person in Teams. There is no separate workspace to adopt, no seats to assign, and no catalogue entry to adapt.

When something needs adjusting, you talk to us — not to your own backlog and not to a configuration screen.

Who is accountable when a regulator asks?

AgentWorks ships compliance tooling at the platform level: PII detection and anonymisation (both opt-in), audit logging, AI transparency labels, forbidden-use blocking, GDPR data subject rights, and per-agent risk classification with the EU AI Act risk class recorded on every run. The tooling exists and the platform runs it. What stays with your team is the deployer work around it — you classify each agent's risk, you decide which PII protections to switch on, you keep the human oversight records. Under the EU AI Act, the deployer obligations stay with you.

fluado is a managed service. We deploy the agents, we build the audit trails, we maintain the compliance documentation. When a regulator asks about the agent's decisions, the answer is a structured log that fluado maintains together with you.

Frequently asked questions

Can I replicate what fluado does with AgentWorks agents?

On the Business tier you'd be combining catalogue agents that connect to Outlook, SharePoint and Teams, and the catalogue covers generic functions — invoice processing, contract review — rather than your specification rules, so the parsing logic, the business rules and the cross-system routing stay yours to define and maintain. On Enterprise, AgentWorks engineers can custom-code an agent instead. The difference then isn't who writes it: it's that the agent runs in the AgentWorks workspace on seats you license, while fluado delivers the result inside your own systems and holds the operating record for it.

AgentWorks lets me switch between LLMs. Does fluado?

fluado selects the models based on what each task requires, and we're not locked into a single provider. You don't manage model selection — that's part of the service. Which model did the work is our problem, not yours.

Both mention EU AI Act compliance. Who handles what?

AgentWorks provides the controls — per-agent risk classification, an audit trail with the risk class on every run, transparency labels, opt-in PII handling. Configuring them and holding the deployer record stays with your organisation. fluado is a managed service where we share that responsibility: we maintain the audit trails, decision logs, and compliance documentation the EU AI Act requires for autonomous AI systems.

How does pricing compare?

AgentWorks is seat-based. There's a free tier with a €5 welcome credit, and a Business tier at €29 per seat per month — about €24 per seat on annual billing — that includes a €10 pooled usage balance per seat; model and tool calls are debited from a EUR wallet at published per-model rates. Enterprise pricing is on request and is where the custom-coded agents sit. Your costs scale with seats and consumption. fluado uses transparent project-based pricing — no seats to count, no consumption-based surprises. Contact us for a quote based on your specific process.
