Watch out: A spreadsheet is only as right as its inputs, and a generated formula is easier to trust than to check. AI tasks are capped by tier, at 5 a month free, 200 on Plus and 1,000 on Pro, and Pro charges a flat monthly fee on top of its per-seat price.

Built for this. One subscription across most of the major models, so you can put the same question to several and compare rather than committing to one lab.

Watch out: Points, not messages, and different models burn them at wildly different rates. Heavy use of a frontier model empties an allowance faster than the plan name suggests.

Watch out: The breadth is also the complaint — it is a lot of product to configure before it helps. The free plan is real but holds 60MB, so it is storage that runs out rather than time or seats.

Built for this. Sits inside Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams, so it works on the documents and meetings a company already has. The closest thing to AI that needs no change of habit.

Watch out: An add-on rather than a standalone purchase: the enterprise Copilot seat is $30 a user a month on top of a qualifying Microsoft 365 licence you must already hold, and Copilot Chat is only included if you already pay for an eligible subscription. Agents need an Azure subscription on top again.

Two things separate these and both are on every card.
Fit
Whether a tool is built for this job, a strong fit for it, or
able to do it without that being its focus.
Free plan
Whether there is a tier you can keep using rather than a
trial that expires.
The order
Fit first, then a free plan, then alphabetical. There is
no score, no weighting we decline to publish, and nothing on this site a company can buy.
Questions
What is the best ai for office work?
There is no single answer, which is why this page lists 12 rather than one: Microsoft 365 Copilot, Gemini in Workspace, ChatGPT, Claude, Notion, Otter.ai, Rows, Beautiful.ai, Poe, ClickUp, Monday.com, Trello. 6 of them are built for this kind of work rather than able to do it. Start with a free one.
Which of these have a free plan?
10 of the 12: Gemini in Workspace, ChatGPT, Claude, Notion, Otter.ai, Rows, Poe, ClickUp, Monday.com, Trello. Free means a real free tier you can keep using, not a trial that expires.
How was this list chosen?
By hand, from the 750 products this site tracks, and it is checked against the catalogue on every build — a product renamed or removed breaks the build rather than quietly disappearing from here. Nothing on this site can be paid for: no listing, no position, no wording.
