Detailed Review
Enclosy is built for professional teams rather than for individual power users. Where ChatGPT is a general assistant you subscribe to with a card, Enclosy gives a firm a private workspace on open-weight models (Mistral, Gemma, Llama and GPT-OSS) that, according to its own legal notice and terms, run on Scaleway and OVHcloud infrastructure in France, with conversations encrypted using a separate key per account.
Its headline feature is the Consortium. Several models answer and challenge each other, and statements are checked against official legal texts before you see the result. That targets a real weakness of general chatbots in legal and accounting work, invented references, though the checking is the vendor's own description and is not something we have tested.
Pricing is per user per month with a guaranteed cap: Essentiel runs from €4 to €19, Pro from €10 to €39 and Intensif from €35 to €120, all excluding VAT. Against ChatGPT you give up the frontier models, image and voice tools and a very large ecosystem, and the operator is a French sole proprietorship, so it suits small firms more than large enterprises.
What Enclosy does well
- Processing stays in France on French-hosted infrastructure, per the vendor's own legal notice
- Statements are checked against official legal texts, aimed at legal and accounting work
- Monthly cost per user is capped in advance, instead of a flat fee or open-ended usage
- A GDPR Article 28 DPA is provided from account creation
- Per-account application-level encryption and an exportable access log
Where Enclosy falls short
- Models trail the frontier models in ChatGPT on the hardest reasoning and coding tasks
- Narrower product: no image generation or large plugin ecosystem
- Small operator run as an individual business (EI), with no published certifications
- Interface and documentation are in French, and the focus is on business teams, not consumers
Standout feature. It pairs French-hosted open-weight models with a legal-text check and a capped per-user price, aimed at small professional firms.
