Hops vs ChatGPT: three big differences

  • No seat fees, and fewer tools to pay for
    Hops has no seat fees, so every team can join without waiting for a license. Docs, slides, dashboards, tables and project tracking come built in, so you can cut seats in other tools.
    With ChatGPT

    ChatGPT Business charges per seat. Dots, the always-on agents in ChatGPT, come with Pro and Business Premium.

  • Your whole project, in one place
    Your team and Hops plan, write and build in the same workspace, so the work stays in one version. What one person teaches Hops, everyone on the team can use.
    With ChatGPT

    Teammates can co-edit ChatGPT decks and Pages and @mention your dot in a comment. Each person still works from their own ChatGPT and memory.

  • Keep private data private, even in team threads
    Hops uses only what the person asking has been granted. If an answer draws on something others in the thread can't see, Hops holds it until the person who asked approves.
    With ChatGPT

    A dot works from your own memory, and when you share a Page, your chats and memory stay private.

Hops isn’t another chatbot connected to your company. It’s a place to run your business. We started with hiring, and instead of fitting into an off-the-shelf applicant tracking system, we can build the workflow around how we actually work.
