Questions about chatbots tools

ChatGPT or Claude?

ChatGPT as a default — wider integrations, image generation, and it runs real code over files you upload. Claude when the input is long: a contract, a spec, a codebase. The gap has narrowed on raw quality and widened on what each is shaped for, so the honest question is which shape matches your week.

Where does Perplexity fit if the others can search?

Its answers are built around citations rather than ending with them, which matters when you have to show your working. For research you will be quoting, that is a different product from an assistant that happens to have browsing switched on.

Is the paid tier worth it?

For daily use, yes — and mostly not for the model. What twenty dollars buys is higher limits, faster responses, file uploads and the features that make it a tool rather than a demo. If you open it twice a week, the free tier is genuinely enough.
