A More Cost-Efficient & Versatile Solution For Enterprises

When I looked at some of Gemini’s G2 reviews, I found the following common complaints:

• Gemini is not as good as ChatGPT for coding tasks.
• The platform does not train itself on the data being provided by the user, but only with recorded information.
• There are often generalized answers when asking for a solution to a more complex issue.

My dislike about Gemini is that it’s not as good as ChatGPT for coding purposes as I have used both extensively.

Another major issue about Gemini is that it doesn’t train itself on the data being provided by me, it only works on the already recorded information, if Google incorporates real-time data visualization then that could be also very helpful. – G2 Review.

➡️ When organizations come to us from Gemini, they tell us that they are looking to customize a custom AI model that they can deploy and host on their own data infrastructure. 

Team-GPT (that’s us) offers the best Gemini alternative for small and large teams looking to adopt AI.

Our platform is an enterprise-grade collaboration AI platform that lets you chat with any AI model, organize prompts, and add your custom AI models.

Here are the key features that Team-GPT has over Gemini’s Business and Enterprise plan:

• Shared chats inside the workspace.
• A library of custom prompts.
• Being able to use Claude, ChatGPT, Mistral, and other AI models in the platform.
• The ability to deploy the AI platform on your own data infrastructure.
• Educational resources for your team members on how to best use AI.
• Usage reports so you can track the AI adoption rate across your organization.

And all of that at a cheaper price point than Gemini’s Business plan which starts at $20/user/month, compared to Team-GPT’s Business plan which costs $18/user/month when paid annually.

Here are some of the core features that make Team-GPT an ideal alternative to Gemini Business and Enterprise: 👇

Feature #1: Customize a Better Version of ChatGPT For Your Team

These instructions can be for brand voice, language, and writing style to scale your content generation without heavily editing it.

Feature #2: AI Toolkit

Team-GPT’s AI platform offers a wide range of AI tools that you can leverage to handle all kinds of simple and complex tasks.

How Is Team-GPT’s Pricing Different Than Gemini’s Pricing Model?

Team-GPT bases its pricing on seats per month, and, unlike Gemini, there is no free plan for casual AI users.
