Detailed recommendations
General-purpose AI chatbot or assistant
Use OpenAI. GPT models are the most versatile option. They handle chat, content generation, code writing, summarization, and classification well. OpenAI has the largest ecosystem and the most community examples.Careful, nuanced content or long document analysis
Use Anthropic. Claude excels at tasks that require careful reasoning, following complex instructions, and producing nuanced, well-structured long-form content. It handles very large context windows, making it ideal for analyzing long documents.Image, video, or mixed media analysis
Use Gemini. Gemini is natively multimodal, meaning it understands text, images, and video in a single model. It also supports very large context windows for processing long documents or transcripts.Factual answers with cited sources from the web
Use Perplexity. Perplexity is an AI-powered search engine that returns answers with inline citations. It is the best choice when accuracy and source verification matter more than creative generation.Voice generation, text-to-speech, and audio
Use ElevenLabs. ElevenLabs is the best choice for converting text into natural, lifelike speech, cloning voices, and generating multilingual audio content.Multiple AI models in the same app
Connect multiple integrations. You can connect OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Perplexity, and ElevenLabs to the same project. Use different models for different features based on their strengths.Browse AI integrations
