Which one is for you
Pick Chatbot App if
- Fits if you want many models and image tools under one membership
- Works for people willing to pay monthly to get past the free plan
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you pay monthly: Pro is $29.99, and only the monthly price could be read
- Tight if you stay free: limited messages on one model, no files, images or voice
- Not for you if you might want your money back, as refunds need under 20 messages sent and a request within 3 days
- Watch out: the trial is $1.99 for a week, then $29.99 a month
- Watch out: the maker, HubX, says it is not affiliated with the model providers
Pick ChatHub if
- Fits if you want a few AI models' answers to compare before trusting one
- Works for people who want GPT, Claude and Gemini on one bill, with no API keys
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you lean on the advanced models, as Pro caps them at 1,500 queries and 300 uploads a month
- Not for you if you need to know the free limit first, because ChatHub doesn't publish it
- Pricey if you pay monthly for Unlimited, at $39 against $24.99 a month on yearly billing
- Watch out: refunds are only within 7 days of purchase, prorated, and never for renewals
- Skip it if you want custom endpoints in the apps, since custom chatbots work in the browser extension only
How we grade them
| 2.2GPAChatbot AppFair | 2.6GPAChatHubGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DPro is $29.99 a month, the only price we could read, which is past the $20 where the dearest tenth of this category starts. | CPro is $14.99 a month billed annually, or $19 monthly, which lands in this category's dearer quarter. It does cover 20-odd models at once, but advanced queries stop at 1,500 a month and document uploads at 300. |
| Free plan and trial | CThe free plan has limited messages with one model and basic web search, and no file upload, image generation, Deep Research or voice. A 1-week trial costs $1.99. | CRegister for the web app and you get a free quota, and ChatHub won't say how big it is. The extension is free on your own accounts or API keys. Web access, file uploads and the other premium bits are paid. |
| Features | BMany models, image generation, chat with files, Deep Research, agent mode, memory and projects. No gap shows in the job, though the free plan holds most of it back. | COne prompt to six chatbots with the answers side by side, and that job it does fully. It's a smaller job, though: web access, file chat and image generation are premium, and custom endpoints only work in the extension. |
| Ease of use | BA browser chat with nothing to set up. No store rating is on record. | BType once, read six answers. The paid plans need no API keys, so there's nothing to wire up first. There's no App Store rating on record for it, so we're going on what the listing shows. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only. No apps, extensions or integrations are listed. | AA web app, a Chrome extension, Windows and Mac apps, iPhone and Android. The extension also takes custom chatbots for any OpenAI-compatible API, such as OpenRouter or Ollama, though that part is extension only. |
| Best for | several chat models and image tools in one membership | comparing AI models' answers side by side |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
