Recommended AI tools:
ChatGPT
https://chatgpt.com
The most well‑known AI assistant created by OpenAI. It debuted publicly on November 30, 2022, a date widely considered a breakthrough moment for AI.
ChatGPT is powered by OpenAI’s proprietary large language model, GPT. The latest version, GPT‑5.5, is of course multimodal (it processes text, images, PDF and Word documents, etc.) and automatically switches between a fast transformer model (Instant) and a more reasoning‑oriented model (Thinking). ChatGPT Plus subscribers can force this switch manually. In the free version, you need to use a trick (add the command “Think before you answer” to the prompt).
ChatGPT also includes the built‑in diffusion model DALL‑E (in its latest version, GPT Image 2) for image generation. However, the assistant cannot generate video or music.
ChatGPT is the most universal (though not the best) AI assistant on the market. It provides high‑quality answers and can generate Word files, Excel spreadsheets, PPTX presentations (although these are quite basic), PDFs, and more.
You can also upload your own files (JPG, PDF, DOCX, PPTX, etc.) and have them analyzed, summarized, or converted to another format (e.g., extract data from a chart in a PNG file and save it to Excel).
It offers an excellent Deep Research feature for creating extensive reports. These reports span dozens of pages and include source references. In the free version, the report is based on several dozen sources; in the paid version — on several hundred.
The free version provides nearly the full functionality of ChatGPT, but with limits — after a few prompts, the model switches to the simpler GPT‑5.5 Mini. Full functionality is restored only after several hours.
To remove these limits, you need a ChatGPT Plus subscription (20 USD/month).
Google Gemini
https://gemini.google.com
A tool similar to ChatGPT, but with several additional features. It can search the internet, so it may be used as an alternative to Google Search (although Google is still the fastest for pure searching). It also generates documents and spreadsheets, but exports them to Google apps (Documents, Spreadsheets, etc.). It cannot generate Word or Excel files.
Gemini offers an excellent Deep Research feature for generating reports, as well as the brilliant Nano Banana and Nano Banana Pro tools for creating and editing images. You can modify images almost like in Photoshop, but 100× faster, because you simply prompt the change you want — for example: “change the weather in the photo to winter.”
Claude
https://claude.ai/
An excellent AI assistant created by Anthropic, a company founded by former OpenAI employees. It produces very high‑quality text (linguistically), making it a top choice for writing articles, blog posts, and social media content. It is also one of the best LLMs for generating and debugging computer code (via the Claude Code tool).
It cannot generate images. It can, however, analyze files (PDF, Excel, Word, as well as images). Documents can be summarized, compared, and processed in various ways.
It also includes a Search feature, which allows it to browse the internet and provide the latest information. It does not have the Deep Research function like the one available in ChatGPT or Gemini.
It generates impressive, interactive tables, charts, and dashboards.
It offers a unique Skills feature, which allows you to teach it a new skill that will then be used to handle future prompts.
Perplexity
https://www.perplexity.ai
A tool designed for acquiring knowledge. It combines the functions of ChatGPT, a web search engine, and Wikipedia. Queries are entered in the form of prompts. You receive extensive answers that always include links to information sources (so you can verify whether the data is accurate). It’s important to ask very specific questions, because Perplexity is less creative than ChatGPT. Note: hallucinations do occur (often caused by low‑quality source websites!), so it should be used with caution. If it provides no sources at all, there is a risk it is making things up.
Perplexity is partially multimodal: you can upload files (e.g., PDF, Word) and request their analysis. In the paid version (Perplexity Pro), it can also generate images. It cannot generate files.
In the paid Perplexity Pro version, you can choose from several LLM models, including the proprietary Sonar 2, as well as GPT‑5.4, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Kimi K2.6, or Nemotron 3 Super.
NotebookLM
https://notebooklm.google.com
An excellent tool for working with your own documents. You create a notebook and add your knowledge sources to it: Word files, PDFs, audio, video, and even links to websites or YouTube videos. A single notebook can contain dozens of knowledge sources.
You then “chat” with your documents. NotebookLM responds exclusively based on the uploaded sources, so it is not prone to hallucinations.
It also includes features for generating audio summaries (a several‑minute podcast with two people talking!), video summaries (a narrated presentation), presentations (at least as visually impressive as those from Gamma), flashcards, mind maps, and knowledge tests.
A tool from the category: “you absolutely must try it — you’ll fall in love instantly!”
Notion
https://www.notion.so
A highly versatile tool for creating notes, managing databases, calendars, and projects. It offers an enormous range of possibilities, although it may feel overwhelming at first. There are entire blogs on the internet dedicated solely to what can be built in Notion.
You can use Notion for free (with no time limits), although some features require a subscription.
Gamma.app
https://gamma.app
An impressive presentation generator. You simply enter the title of the presentation (“a presentation about electric scooters”), and the tool creates a complete deck, including content and illustrations. The finished presentation can be freely edited and exported to PPTX.
You can also upload your own presentation template.
Sesame
https://www.sesame.com/
An extremely realistic voicebot — the generated voice sounds almost indistinguishable from talking to a real human. To try out the conversations, you need to click “Research Preview” in the top menu or at the very bottom of the page.
Tactiq
https://tactiq.io
A very useful tool for transcribing conversations and video calls. It generates meeting notes and summaries. It can automatically join meetings on Teams, Zoom, or Meet. In the free version, it can save 10 meetings per month. You can also upload your own recording (an audio file or an MP4 video) from a meeting, and Tactiq will produce a transcription and a meeting summary.
