Microsoft Copilot is usually better when the task must happen directly inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, or Teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"which-is-cheaper-chatgpt-or-copilot\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which is cheaper, ChatGPT or Copilot?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ChatGPT Plus is $20 per month, while Microsoft currently lists Copilot Business from $18 per user per month when paid yearly.
