I use regular Kagi assistant for most of my questions. I use Openrouter chat to chat with Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT 5 at the same time and continue only the productive conversation. My OR account is for my coding agent and its completely pay as you go, no fixed monthly costs.

I’ve stuck with chatgpt and do dump screenshots, spreadsheets, etc. in there with some regularity. Screenshots are mostly for convenience and spreadsheets when I’m still stuck on something. Didn’t even think about loading in different things. I can see potential for this in the future but I’ve been with ChatGPT for so long exactly because it does so well with accepting files to work with.

Do you use it regularly (20 min a day or so)? If so, how is your monthly consumption - does it beat the subscription costs for either service?

I don’t use 20 minutes a day or so. It is more like I don’t use it a ton and then tend to go through periods where I might lean on it a lot. This is why I feel like it is tough to make the call.

I guess I should also explore how capable the free version is at this point, too.
