Gemini Alternatives
Gemini fits neatly into Google's tools. Here are the options worth considering alongside it.
Gemini's biggest advantage is how tightly it's woven into Gmail, Docs, and Sheets. If your team isn't fully on Google's stack, though, or you want a different strength -- broader plugin support, longer-form reasoning, or citation-backed research -- another tool may fit better.
Worth considering

General-purpose use and broad plugin support
The most widely adopted assistant, with the largest ecosystem of integrations and third-party tools

Long documents, writing, careful reasoning
Strong at following detailed instructions and handling large amounts of text in a single conversation
Perplexity
Research with sources
Answers come with citations built in, closer to a search engine than a general assistant
Microsoft Copilot
Microsoft 365 users
