ChatGPT wins for API integrations and custom GPTs. Claude wins for long-document analysis and writing quality. Most businesses will benefit from running both for different workflows.
| Spec | ChatGPT (OpenAI) | Claude (Anthropic) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $20/mo (Plus) | $20/mo (Pro) |
| Context Window | 128K tokens | 200K tokens |
| Team Plan | $25/user/mo | $25/user/mo |
| API | Mature, well-documented | Newer, stricter limits |
| Enterprise SSO | Yes (Enterprise) | Yes (Enterprise) |
| Custom Assistants | GPTs marketplace | Projects (limited) |
| Data Privacy | Opt-out on Enterprise | No training on paid plans |
Both offer a $25/user/mo Team plan with shared workspaces and admin controls. ChatGPT Team adds GPTs sharing, while Claude Team emphasizes data privacy with no training on your content. For mixed workloads, splitting the team across both is increasingly common.
Yes. OpenAI's API is more mature with better SDK support, higher rate limits, and clearer enterprise SLAs. Anthropic's API is production-ready but has stricter tiered rate limits and a smaller ecosystem of middleware and observability tools.
Claude does not train on data from paid plans by default, which is a strong default for compliance teams. ChatGPT only disables training on the Enterprise tier, meaning Team and Plus users must opt out manually or accept that prompts may be used for model improvement.
Neither publishes Enterprise pricing. Both require a sales conversation, but OpenAI typically negotiates volume discounts on API usage while Anthropic bundles in longer context windows and priority support. Total cost depends heavily on whether your team uses the chat UI or the API.
