Every business answering messages eventually asks this question. Here’s an honest look at ReplyBoost against Microsoft’s AI woven into the corporate inbox โ where each wins, and which fits how you actually work.
Quick Summary
ReplyBoost turns any message into a professional, human-sounding reply in seconds. Paste the email, WhatsApp or LinkedIn message you received, and it drafts the response โ matched to the platform, in your language, free to start.
Where Copilot in Outlook Wins
Credit where due: for organisations already paying for Microsoft 365 Copilot, drafting inside Outlook with document context is genuinely powerful.
Where ReplyBoost Wins
The gap is that it’s priced and designed for the enterprise seat, tied to one ecosystem โ overkill in cost and underwhelming in coverage for a small business answering customers across email, WhatsApp and social.
Verdict
Choose Copilot in Outlook if you’re in a Copilot-licensed organisation and Outlook is where your work lives. Otherwise: Small businesses don’t need an enterprise licence to answer messages well. ReplyBoost starts free and covers the channels SMB customers actually use.
