What's not included here is any assessment of which AI models are "better" than others. That can be difficult to measure, especially as models frequently change. Using the free tiers for these bots should give you a good idea of which AI models you like best, and which give the most relevant responses to your queries.
Gemini

The standard on free plans is 32K tokens (the blocks of info that AI bots work with), which add up to around 24,000 words. For AI Plus plans, that goes up to 128K tokens (about 96,000 words), and for all the other paid plans, you get one million tokens (about 750,000 words).
Gemini makes sense if you already use a lot of Google apps (Gmail, Google Maps, Google Docs) and Android. After all, it's built right in. It's also worth noting that you get a host of extras included with these AI plans: more Google One storage at each tier, as well as YouTube Premium, Google Home Premium, and the new Google Health Premium (for AI Pro and AI Ultra plans).
Paid plans: AI Plus ($7.99 a month), AI Pro ($19.99 a month), AI Ultra (either $99.99 or $199.99 a month)
ChatGPT

Free users get 16K tokens (roughly 12,000 words), which goes up to 32K tokens (24,000 words) for Plus users, but there's no mention of the Go plan. Pro users currently get 128K tokens (96,000 words) for GPT‑5.5 Instant, and 400K tokens (300,000 words) for GPT-5.5 Thinking—the best models ChatGPT has at the moment.
There's no wider ChatGPT suite of tools behind the AI chatbot, though it can connect up to a host of apps—including Photoshop, Figma, Spotify, Apple Music, Airtable, and plenty more. It also has its own experimental browser (ChatGPT Atlas), but it's very platform-agnostic when it comes to what it works best with.
Paid plans: Go ($8 a month), Plus ($20 a month), Pro ($100 or $200 a month)
Claude
Credit: LifehackerContext windows are the same on all three paid plan tiers: 200K tokens (about 150,000 words). What the context window is for free users isn't specified anywhere. Claude does let you pay as you go, to some extent, if you need extra AI usage on top of what you're already being charged for your subscription.
Like ChatGPT, and unlike Gemini, Claude isn't really tied to any particular ecosystem. However, it can connect to a multitude of other apps that you can then run through Claude, including Canva, Gmail, Slack, and Uber. There's also a Skills feature, where you can create customized instruction prompts for Claude to run again and again.
Paid plans: Pro ($20 a month), Max ($100 or $200 a month)
Copilot
Credit: LifehackerWhile Microsoft isn't too precise about Copilot's usage limits, it does say that Personal subscribers get "higher than free" usage limits, and Premium subscribers get the "highest" limits. This applies to image generation too, while AI agents and audio creation are exclusive to the Premium tier. Microsoft doesn't say anything about context limits for individual users.
As with Gemini and Google, the primary reason to pick Copilot for your paid AI subscription is if you're already invested in Windows, the Edge browser, and Microsoft's office apps. Copilot integrates deeply into these pieces of software, and so is easier to call on if you need AI assistance.
Paid plans: Personal ($9.99 a month), Premium ($19.99 a month)
Perplexity
Credit: LifehackerThere's little official information from Perplexity about exact usage limits or context windows, though the more you pay, the more usage you'll get: The Max tier is described as offering the "highest usage and top performance", and gives you access to the "most advanced AI reasoning models".
The primary reason to sign up for a Perplexity subscription is if you find its focus on web search and information gathering useful. It also has its own browser, as well as some agentic tools that can carry out actions online for you. It's more focused than other AI chatbots, which may or may not be what you're looking for.
Paid plans: Pro ($20 a month), Max ($200 a year)
