External data transfer: some. Computed from “Assistant on Amazon Bedrock”, the catalogue deployment that names Amazon Bedrock and best matches this brief. Confidential content leaves your premises for your own cloud tenancy ("VPC / PrivateLink"). You keep control of the account; the provider is a processor, so a DPA and a documented region apply.

External data transfer: yes. Computed from “Microsoft 365 Copilot rollout with permissions first”, the catalogue deployment that names Microsoft Copilot Studio and best matches this brief. Confidential content leaves your control on the Employees → Microsoft 365 Copilot (Office apps, Business Chat) link.

External data transfer: yes. Computed from “Agent workflow on a model vendor’s API”, the catalogue deployment that names LangGraph and best matches this brief. Confidential content leaves your control on the Tools + retrieval (your APIs and data) → Vendor model API link.

We hold no fetched residency commitment for Amazon Bedrock. That is a question to put to the vendor, not an assumption to make about them. The vendor is headquartered in United States, which is where a transfer question starts, not where it ends.

Self-hosted: the content stays wherever you run the server, so residency is a property of your own infrastructure rather than a vendor commitment.

We have fetched none of the four commitments for Amazon Bedrock: data processing agreement, subprocessor list, training on customer data, zero retention option. Each is a question for the vendor, and until it is answered it is unknown rather than absent.

Run on your own infrastructure, so the vendor questions apply only to whatever you still buy. We hold none of the four commitments for this subject, and for a self-hosted deployment none of them is required.

The vendor runs the service. Your standing work is access control, the policy staff work under, and re-reading the contract and subprocessor list when they change — not patching or capacity.

You own the identity integration and joiner/leaver process, the connectors and their credentials, operating-system patching and backups. Assessed difficulty 3/5 is the shape of that work; someone has to hold it after go-live.

4/5. Starting point 2/5: your own tenancy to build in, but no hardware to buy or rack. +0.5 You run the model server yourself: GPU drivers, quantisation choice, memory headroom and restarts are all yours to own.

3/5. Starting point 1/5: a vendor product, configured rather than installed. +0.5 Single sign-on adds an identity provider, group-to-role mapping and a joiner/leaver process to the deployment.

3/5. Starting point 2/5: software you install, run and keep running on your own machines. -0.5 The model runs on the vendor’s infrastructure: there is no capacity planning, no GPU driver, no model upgrade window and no failover for you to design.

USD 4,600 – 31,000 — one-off — for Amazon Bedrock at this headcount. Computed from “Assistant on Amazon Bedrock”, the catalogue deployment that names Amazon Bedrock and best matches this brief. Licences are not in that figure: no per-seat price has been read from the vendor’s own pricing page, so the software line is excluded from the total rather than guessed. Read it as implementation only.

USD 7,600 – 58,000 — one-off — for Microsoft Copilot Studio at this headcount.

Amazon Bedrock is a vendor product: you configure what the vendor exposes — policies, connectors, retention settings — and nothing below that line.

Microsoft Copilot Studio is a vendor product: you configure what the vendor exposes — policies, connectors, retention settings — and nothing below that line.

The registry files LangGraph as open source, so the interface, retrieval behaviour and the model behind it can be changed — subject to the licence, which is a fetched fact on its own page.
