ChatGPT is OpenAI's conversational AI assistant available on web, iOS, and Android, used by hundreds of millions of people for writing, coding, research, analysis, and creative tasks. The free tier provides access to GPT-4o mini; ChatGPT Plus subscribers get GPT-4o with higher rate limits, image generation via DALL-E 3, voice mode, and the ability to upload files for analysis. Custom GPTs allow building narrow, persona-specific assistants for specific workflows without coding. The Advanced Data Analysis tool lets users upload spreadsheets and documents for automated analysis and visualisation. ChatGPT's broad capability, low barrier to entry, and the quality of GPT-4o make it the first AI assistant most people encounter and the default benchmark against which other AI tools are measured.

The free tier provides access to Gemini 1.5 Flash; Gemini Advanced subscribers access Gemini 1.5 Pro with a 1 million token context window. Gemini integrates directly into Google Workspace — Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, and Drive — enabling AI assistance without leaving familiar tools. Gemini's multimodal capabilities support text, images, audio, and video input natively. Google's infrastructure and data partnerships give Gemini strong performance on knowledge-intensive and factual tasks. For teams already inside the Google ecosystem, Gemini's deep Workspace integration makes it distinctly more useful than AI assistants that operate only outside existing productivity tools.
