⭐ Tool of the Month — May 2026
ChatGPT Plus
The leading AI assistant
★★★★★ 4.9/5
Why we picked ChatGPT Plus this month
OpenAI ChatGPT Plus gives access to GPT-4 with faster responses and priority access.
ChatGPT Plus at $20/month gives access to GPT-4o, the most capable general-purpose AI model available to consumers in 2026. In our testing across 200 prompts spanning writing, coding, analysis, and reasoning, it outperformed every other AI assistant on complex multi-step tasks. The addition of code execution, image generation via DALL-E 3, and real-time web browsing make it a genuinely useful daily tool rather than a novelty. The main limitation is the usage cap on GPT-4o — heavy users will hit it and drop to GPT-3.5 during peak hours.
