AI agents & assistants compared
Agents that can do multi-step work for you. For each one: the plan that includes it, official USD and CAD prices side by side (never converted), and whether it can browse the web, use apps or a desktop, run on a schedule, keep working in the background, and connect to email and calendar. "Unverified" means the official pages we checked didn't say. All checked 2026-10-15. We don't pick a winner.
