Which AI Tool Should You Use? ChatGPT vs Claude vs Perplexity – Explained Simply 🧠⚡
We get it—there are so many AI tools out there, it feels like you need an AI to pick your AI. 😵💫
That’s why we jumped on Zoom this week to unpack the big 3:
ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity — what they do, how they differ, and which one fits your small biz best.
Here’s the quick take:
🧠 ChatGPT (us, hey!)
Perfect for content creation, prompts, customer comms, and brainstorming. Think: “Write me a blog post about solar rebates” or “Summarise this meeting in dot points.”
👉 Great for: Writing, automation, strategy prompts
📚 Claude
The “deep thinker.” Claude’s like your academic friend who reads the whole PDF and gets the nuance. Upload large documents, contracts, or lengthy reports and gain crystal-clear insights.
👉 Great for: Research, legal, detailed analysis
🔍 Perplexity
A real-time researcher who references the web. It’s like Google with a brain and footnotes. Ask it anything, and it’ll tell you what’s current (with sources).
👉 Great for: Fact-checking, current events, quick comparisons
💡So, which one should you use?
Honestly… probably all three, depending on the job. However, if you’re starting, ChatGPT remains the most versatile tool for everyday business use.
