Robyn Anderson compares Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini 3 for different tasks: Claude for project folders and knowledge bases, ChatGPT as a strategic advisor with custom GPTs, and Gemini 3 for multimodal work like image and video. You don't need subscriptions to all of them, though Anderson pays for each.

What's the difference between ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini? And do you need subscriptions to all of them? Let me answer that question with no. However, I do have subscriptions to all of them. I use Claude for my project folders. I love how I can train each project on a specific client and give it a knowledge base and custom instructions. It does a great job at keeping consistent with the content that you've put in with its memory. So I really like that. It keeps me organized and it keeps me on track with my clients. For ChatGPT, it's really become my strategic advisor and my partner. I've had a relationship with it since 2023, so we go way back and it really understands my business and my goals without much prompting. I also love creating custom GPTs that act as different assistants or little AI employees for my business. And then finally, I love Gemini. So I create a lot of content and courses and I created a workbook and just last week I put the workbook into Gemini 3 and I asked it to create an interactive app instead of the workbook and it did. So I really love the capabilities that Gemini 3 has and all of the image creation and video that's in Google AI Studio. So I would say if you have to pick just one, if you're a beginner, start with ChatGPT. I think it's really easy to use and friendly and you can grow with it if you're more advanced in using multimodal AI generation. I would say start with Gemini 3.
