Duke vs.
Power BI.
Cheap seats. Microsoft gravity.
Power BI wins on price and Microsoft-stack lock-in. Where it loses: real-time conversational depth, true semantic governance outside DAX, and EU sovereignty.
THE MATRIX
Primary surface
POWER BIReports + Q&A
DUKEConversation + agentic actions
Semantic Layer
POWER BIDAX models, per-dataset
DUKECentral, typed, versioned
Natural language
POWER BICopilot (English-bias, US-hosted LLM)
DUKEMistral/Claude/GPT, EU by default, FR-native
Agentic execution (MCP)
POWER BIPower Automate, weak data lineage
DUKENative MCP, full lineage
Hosting
POWER BIAzure US/EU mix
DUKE100% EU, contractually
Pricing
POWER BI$10-$20/u + Premium capacity
DUKE€39-€129/u flat
VERDICT
If you live in Microsoft and accept US data flows, Power BI is the cheap default. Choose Duke when sovereignty, French-first NL and agentic execution are non-negotiable.
BEST FIT
European companies under DORA / DSA / EU AI Act scrutiny who can't bet on US-hosted Copilot for decisions.
