Best AI assistants for everyday work
General AI assistants and the AI built into notes, email and docs. Start here if you want one tool that covers a lot of ground.
Claude
Strong at careful writing and long documents, but heavy users hit usage limits on lower plans and the top plans cost $100 a month or more.
FreemiumBest for writing-heavy and analytical work
Gemini
Good value if you already pay for Google storage, but the plan lineup is confusing and the Gmail and Docs features sit behind paid tiers.
FreemiumBest for people who already live in Gmail, Docs and Google Drive
Microsoft 365 Copilot
Fits naturally into Office apps for Microsoft shops, but it is priced per user on top of an existing Microsoft 365 business license.
From $21/moBest for businesses already running on Microsoft 365
Notion AI
Most useful when your work already lives in Notion, but free and Plus plans only get a trial, so the full AI features need the $20 Business plan.
FreemiumBest for teams that already keep their docs and projects in Notion
