Best fit

Who each tool is for

Bricks

Strong Choice

Best for: Consultants delivering executive reporting from uploaded datasets.

Why pick it: Upload a spreadsheet, get a polished dashboard in minutes. The AI generates narrative commentary alongside charts — ready for a client deck, not just data.

Watch for: No live data connections. If you need dashboards that refresh automatically from live sources, use Looker Studio or Databox instead.

ChatGPT

Default

Best for: Consultants who need a generalist AI assistant for brainstorming, drafting, and data analysis.

Why pick it: The most widely adopted AI tool in consulting. Advanced Data Analysis handles spreadsheet and data work without code, and the platform spans web, mobile, voice, and API — covering nearly every consulting workflow.

Watch for: For research that needs live citations, Perplexity is purpose-built. For the very longest document sets, Claude's larger context window still has an edge.
