  • Claude Code is included with Pro, Max, Ultra and Team
  • Connectors use MCP to reach Slack, Google Workspace and other tools

Cons

  • Usage limits on every plan, with weekly caps (and five-hour caps below Ultra) and no published message counts
  • Does not generate images
  • The higher individual tiers are costly: Max is $100 per month and Ultra is $200 per month
  • Linux desktop app is still in beta

Genspark

  • Covers slides, sheets, docs, research, chat, image and video in a single workspace.
