One app instead of several subscriptions
Disclosure: this is our product. Exvisit Studio has two workspaces in one desktop app: Chat Studio for research, documents, presentations and spreadsheets, and Code Studio for coding with an agent. One plan covers models from many providers, so you can pick a cheap model for simple work and a strong one for hard tasks.
