The ChatGPT Plus package costs $20/month and expands access to GPT-5 with higher limits on messaging, file uploads, data analysis, and image creation. Users also get enhanced voice mode with video and screen sharing, along with the ChatGPT Agent.

If you need more, you can opt for the Pro plans, priced from $100 to $200 per month. The $100 plan offers five times the usage, while the $200 plan offers twenty times the usage.

Google Gemini: Plus, Pro, and AI Ultra

Gemini has the advantage of deep integration with the Google ecosystem. The AI ​​Pro package offers more features than the free version, including Gemini in Google Workspace, the Flow animation tool, and advanced modeling in Google Search's AI Mode.

Additionally, this plan offers 5TB of storage for Google Photos, Drive, and Gmail. Users also receive a 10% discount on purchases from the Google Store.

Although AI Pro has many features, the free version of Gemini is still sufficient for many people.

Google's top-tier plan is AI Ultra, priced at $250 per month. This plan increases storage capacity from 5TB to 30TB, includes YouTube Premium, and provides early access to Project Mariner—a new prototype agent.

Google also introduced a Plus plan priced at $8 per month, offering 200GB of storage and enhanced access to the Gemini 3 Pro.

Microsoft Copilot

Copilot comes pre-installed on many Windows machines, making it more accessible to users. Despite using the ChatGPT model in conjunction with Microsoft Graph, Copilot still offers a unique user experience.

One notable point is that Copilot produces quite impressive images. In some tests, Copilot produced images that were more distinct than ChatGPT and Gemini.

Copilot also integrates well with Microsoft 365, but some features are only unlocked when using Microsoft 365 for Business, such as Copilot Notebooks.

 

Copilot's paid plans increase usage limits, unlock Deep Research, and add Actions features—allowing Copilot to fill out forms or assist with shopping.

Perplexity excels in the research field. However, the free version only allows three advanced searches per day.

Perplexity Pro, priced at $20/month, unlocks unlimited search, unlimited file uploads, and access to advanced modeling. Additionally, users can utilize image creation features.

Perplexity also has the Comet browser with integrated AI. Pro and Max users will have access to Comet Plus.
