| Value for money | DChat is $24 a month for 5 seats yearly, about $4.80 each, but it has no credits. Workflows start at Growth, $1,000 a month. | DPro is $59 a seat a month billed yearly, $69 monthly, and that buys one seat. The middle of this category is $8.33 and its dearest tenth starts at $15.00, so this is several times a typical writing tool, and dearer than ChatGPT or Claude on its own list of rivals. |

There's a 7-day trial of Pro and the listing doesn't say whether it wants a card. When the week is out it's $69 a month, or $59 if you sign up for the year. |
| Features | CChat with several models, workflows, tables, brand voice and sales use cases. API access and bulk workflow runs are Enterprise only. | BA document editor in Canvas, a chat assistant, more than 100 prebuilt marketing agents, image generating and editing, and Jasper IQ holding the brand voices, audiences and company knowledge that output draws on. The marketing-copy job covered, though Pro holds you to 2 brand voices and 5 knowledge assets. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. You build workflows and set up brand voice before it's useful. | CNo store rating on record, and it isn't a thing you just start using: brand voices, audiences and knowledge assets are yours to build before the output follows your rules, and there are 100-odd agents to find your way around. Canvas is simple enough once you're there. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb with Zapier, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Docs, Notion and Coda. No desktop or phone app is listed. | BA web app with an extension for Chrome and Edge, add-ins inside Google Docs and Microsoft Word, and links to Slack, Webflow, Zapier, Make and Semrush. No desktop or phone app at all, and the API is Business only, which is what keeps it off an A. |

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.
