Copilot Pro or ChatGPT Plus? Which is worth your $20 per month?

Written By Nick DeCourcy

With Copilot Pro, Microsoft hasn't created an alternative cheaper version of Copilot for Microsoft 365, but an alternative for those who might otherwise buy a ChatGPT Plus subscription.

These two offerings have a lot of similarities and also a lot of differences, but in a head to head comparing the two products, which is actually better? Or because they are both based on OpenAI's GPT models GPT-3 and GPT-4, perhaps they are exactly the same?

I've bought both so you don't have to. So let me show you how they work alongside each other in a series of demos, and you can choose which one is for you (or maybe something else).

Whether you choose Copilot Pro, Copilot, Copilot for Microsoft 365, ChatGPT, or ChatGPT Plus, many of the features highlighted here apply, and it's important to understand where these tools differentiate themselves.
