ChatGPT Business is a new paid seat. Gemini in Google Workspace is already in the Workspace subscription. Buy the ChatGPT seat for builders; stay on Gemini when the team is Workspace-heavy and the incremental cost is the question.

What we evaluated
Evaluation criteria: Coding tasks, Content ideation, Operations notes. Conclusions are based on primary documentation, product evidence, and workflow fit — not hands-on benchmark runs unless noted.
If your workflow mixes coding, planning, and writing, ChatGPT is usually the strongest all-round default. If your team is centered on Google Workspace, Gemini can be the more natural fit.
