Pick ChatGPT if everyone who wants a hosted general assistant — writing, Q&A, light research, images. Pick Wordtune if support and marketing writers who want a short rewrite without leaving the tab. Skip ChatGPT if teams that cannot send prompts to OpenAI, or developers who need a repo-aware IDE (Cursor) or a local runtime (Ollama). Skip Wordtune if people who need Standard/Fluency/Academic modes (QuillBot) or a
signed-out rewrite box
