Cloud AI
The paid cloud side of AI: chat assistants, image and video generators and coding copilots — reviewed for pricing, free tiers, API access and how they compare to running the same work locally.
ChatGPT (OpenAI)
The default frontier assistant: frontier models, free tier, API, and the biggest ecosystem of integrations.
Claude (Anthropic)
Anthropic’s assistant: top-tier writing and coding, long context, strong safety posture — a close second to ChatGPT.
Midjourney
The quality benchmark for AI image generation — subscription only, cloud only, no API.
