The Verdict
Microsoft Copilot is built for microsoft 365 users and enterprise, with a focus on chat and web-search. Tally targets startups and creators and leads with form-builder and conditional-logic.
On pricing, Microsoft Copilot is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $20/mo compared to $29/mo for Tally. That $9/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Tally edges out on user ratings (4.6 vs 4.2). While both are well-regarded, that gap reflects real differences in user satisfaction worth considering.

Bottom line: Tally has a slight overall edge — but if free access to gpt-4 via bing integration matters most to you, Microsoft Copilot may still be the right call.
