ChatGPT
ChatGPT is the world's most well-known AI tool — and one of the most versatile all-rounders. GPT-4o handles text, code, analysis, and images equally well.
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an AI assistant by OpenAI, built on the GPT-4o language model. Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT has transformed how people interact with AI — and with over 100 million active users, it is the most widely used AI tool in the world.
ChatGPT in our review: Strengths and weaknesses
In testing, ChatGPT stands out above all for its versatility: text creation, code assistance, data analysis, image generation (DALL-E), and web search are all integrated in a single interface. Answer quality is consistently high, and speed with GPT-4o-mini is excellent. The main weakness is that a paid subscription is required to access the full power of GPT-4o and advanced features.
Pricing and plans
ChatGPT is available in a free version that uses GPT-4o-mini. ChatGPT Plus costs $20/month and provides access to GPT-4o as well as all advanced features including Deep Research and extended data analysis. Team and Enterprise plans are available for organizations.
Who is ChatGPT for?
ChatGPT is suitable for almost everyone — from students to freelancers to enterprise teams. It is particularly strong for writing, code generation, and analytical tasks. Anyone looking for one AI tool that does it all will find ChatGPT the safest starting point. To see how the all-rounder stacks up, read our ChatGPT vs. Gemini and ChatGPT vs. DeepSeek comparisons.
