AI assistants

General assistants are the all-rounders: one chat box that can answer questions, draft text, read a file you upload, and help you think through a problem.

Most offer a free tier. The paid plans mainly buy you a stronger model, higher limits, and features such as file analysis or working inside your other apps.
