AEQI vs Viktor
August 22, 2026 · Luca Eich
Choose Viktor if you already have a company and want finished work delivered into the Slack or Teams channel where your team talks.
Choose AEQI if the company is what’s missing: you want a website today and a team that finds leads and writes the emails for you to approve.
What Viktor is
Viktor’s own line is “Not a tool. A hire.” It installs into a Slack or Microsoft Teams workspace you already run, connects to more than 3,200 tools, and returns finished work — documents, spreadsheets, web apps, campaigns. It asks before sending emails. It says more than 65,000 teams use it, and it is backed by Accel. It starts at $50 a month per workspace, in credits; in mid-September the top tier was $30,000 for 12 million credits, and new workspaces started with $100 in trial credits.
Side by side
| Question | Viktor | AEQI |
|---|---|---|
| Who it's for | Existing teams with a company and a Slack or Teams workspace | First-time and solo founders with an idea and no website yet |
| Where it lives | Inside Slack or Microsoft Teams; no separate app | A web app where you talk with your team, and your website at yourname.aeqi.ai |
| Agents and roles | One AI employee, working on whatever task you hand it | Eleven AI agents, one job each: the website, sales, marketing, finance and more |
| Approval | Asks before sending emails | Every email and post waits for you to Approve, Edit or Skip; so does spending money |
| Memory | Not stated in what we checked | One memory the whole team reads and adds to |
| Works with | More than 3,200 tools | Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion, Stripe and more |
| Hosting and data | Hosted by Viktor; SOC 2 Type 1, with Type 2 and ISO 27001 described as in progress | Its own server for your company alone, hosted in Germany (4 GB of memory on Start) |
| Pricing | From $50 a month per workspace, in credits | $120 a month (€100 in Europe) with 5,000 credits a month. Bigger plans at $300 and $750 |
| Trial | $100 in trial credits (as of mid-September 2026) | 7 days free, card required, nothing charged today; cancel anytime, no contract |
| Scale | More than 65,000 teams, by its own count | Newer, with far fewer companies so far |
Viktor is the better choice when
- You already have a company — accounts, a Slack or Teams workspace — and want finished work delivered straight into that conversation.
- Tool breadth matters most: Viktor connects to more than 3,200 tools, far more than AEQI today.
- You want a larger, established product used by tens of thousands of teams.
AEQI is the better choice when
- The company doesn’t exist yet, or exists only as you: there is no workspace waiting for a hire.
- You want your website today, at yourname.aeqi.ai, and a team that finds leads and writes the emails.
- You want a team with one job each and one memory they share, rather than one employee doing every kind of task.
- You want your company on a server of its own, hosted in Germany, for one price a month with monthly AI credits included.
