Pros and cons

Julius AI

Pros

  • Runs executed Python code on uploaded data rather than only describing answers
  • Builds exportable charts from plain-language requests
  • Connects to PostgreSQL, Snowflake and BigQuery on paid plans
  • Starts at $20 per month, with a free plan to try it
  • Has an iOS app as well as the web app

Cons

  • Free allowance is small and has been reduced over time
  • Plans, credits and names changed several times in 2026, which makes costs hard to predict
  • Business costs $450 per month
  • No public API is confirmed, and no Android or desktop app was found

Opera Neon

Pros

  • Combines chat, browser actions, research and content creation in one browser rather than a separate extension.
  • Neon Do shows its plan and actions in real time and can be paused or taken over.
  • Wide model choice across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI and open-weight models on the Standard plan.
  • MCP connector and CLI let external agents such as Claude Code or n8n use a live browser session.
  • Credentials, passwords and card details are stated to stay on the device, and Opera says it does not train on user data.
  • Free VPN and ad blocker are included in the browser.

Cons

  • Full agentic features need the $19.90 per month Standard plan, higher than many AI add-ons.
  • Windows and macOS only; no Linux, iOS or Android version yet.
  • Neon Do uses cloud LLMs to plan, and page content is sent to Opera and OpenAI servers with 365-day retention.
  • Opera itself calls Neon an experimental agentic browser, so behaviour and plan limits may change.
