Claude is dropping prices, while Google is raising them. Google just launched the Gemini 3 Deep Think mode, which is even more powerful than Gemini 3 Pro. To use it, you’ll need to subscribe for $250/month (with a few months offering half-price discounts). OpenAI’s ChatGPT Pro also costs $200/month to access more models, especially GPT-5.1-Pro. But Claude only costs $20/month to use their most powerful Opus 4.5. Although there are usage limits, it’s enough to get a good experience.
