Two Helpers. Both Free. Both Powerful.
Both tools are AI assistants — you type a message (a prompt), and they respond with helpful, detailed output. You can use them right in your browser, no downloads needed. Here's how to think of each one:

Made by Anthropic. Exceptional at building web pages, writing long-form content, and detailed strategic planning. Think of it as your builder and planner.
