What ChatGPT does
Chat assistant that answers questions, writes, creates images, runs research and helps with code from one interface.
ChatGPT is a chat-based AI assistant from OpenAI that handles questions, writing, image creation, file uploads and coding help from a single interface. According to its homepage, you can start by signing up for free or by downloading the app, and logging in gives answers based on your saved chats. The pricing page lists access on web, iOS and Android.
Four individual plans are priced in euros. Free costs €0 per month and includes unlimited text chats (subject to abuse guardrails), with limited uploads, image creation, voice chats, deep research, memory and Codex access. Go costs €7.99 per month and adds more messages, uploads, image creation, voice chats and longer memory; the page notes that this plan may include ads. Plus costs €23 per month and adds advanced reasoning models, expanded deep research, projects, scheduled tasks, custom GPTs and expanded Codex usage. Pro starts from €103 per month, offers a choice of 3 usage tiers, and includes Dot, an always-on agent, plus monthly API credits.
Business and Enterprise plans also exist. Business starts at 2 users, and Enterprise requires contacting sales. Context window size varies by plan, with 27K on Free. The pricing page lists an opt-out for the use of content to train models on every individual plan.

Our take
ChatGPT suits individuals who want one assistant for writing, research, images and code and who would like to try a free plan before paying. The tiered plans let you move up as limits become a constraint. It fits less well if you need fixed, predictable usage on the free tier, since many features are marked limited there, or if you want to avoid ads on the Go plan. Business and Enterprise prices are not shown on the pricing page, so teams must ask the vendor. Pro starts at a much higher price than Plus, so check the stated usage tiers before upgrading.
