Best fit
Best for: Consultants doing deep document analysis, contract review, and polished writing — especially when working across large file sets or connected to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.
Why pick it: A 500K-token context on the latest models handles entire RFPs, contracts, and research sets in one conversation. Native Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace connectors let it work where you already do, and the writing is consistently more natural and less formulaic.
Watch for: If you need to generate images, ChatGPT (DALL·E) and Gemini still have the edge — Claude doesn't produce photos or illustrations.
Best for: Consultants running strategy workshops, brainstorming sessions, and framework exercises with clients.
Why pick it: 5,000+ templates cover every major consulting framework out of the box. Real-time collaboration with voting, timers, and private brainstorming mode prevents groupthink, and Miro AI can draft boards and summaries from a prompt.
Watch for: Overkill for simple note-taking or async document collaboration. Use Notion if you need a knowledge base, not a whiteboard.
