Claude

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant available on web, iOS, and Android, developed with a focus on safety, honesty, and useful long-form reasoning. Its extended context window — up to 200,000 tokens on Pro — allows feeding entire codebases, legal documents, research papers, or long manuscripts into a single conversation for analysis and transformation. Claude is particularly strong at nuanced writing, following complex multi-part instructions, and tasks that require maintaining consistency over long outputs. Claude Pro subscribers get priority access and higher usage limits. An API is available for developers building applications. Claude is used by developers, researchers, writers, and legal professionals who need an AI that handles long-context, high-precision tasks more reliably than alternatives.

Gemini

Gemini is Google's family of multimodal AI models accessible via gemini.google.com on web, iOS, and Android. 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.
