ChatGPT when it's you and AI (and never anyone else). Rally when the work gets better with a team. In Rally, your team and AI talk in long-running Channels (like Slack).

> You can import an existing ChatGPT session into Rally and start collaborating on that thread with your team immediately.

## Side by side

|                               | Rally                                                                       | ChatGPT                                                                 |
| ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| People in one AI conversation | Yes. Everyone in a Channel talks to the same Rally.                         | Just you                                                                |
| Shared context                | Channels keep files, decisions, and history visible to humans and AI alike. | Copy-Paste or sharing only. People routinely just share the end result. |
| Private side work             | Breakouts for one-on-one or small-group work, merged back when ready.       | Personal chats are private till shared.                                 |
| Your tools                    | Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, GitHub, Linear, Granola, and more.         | Huge amount of plugins and connectors (we can admit it)                 |

## Where Rally wins

### One conversation, the whole team in it

Everyone in a Channel talks to the same Rally, together. Rally keeps track of who asked what, so a question from Maya and a follow-up from Sam land in the same place, with the same AI and the same history.

### Context that stays where the work is

A Space keeps the files, decisions, and past conversations for a project. When a teammate jumps in on Thursday, Rally already knows what happened on Monday, and nobody has to retell the story or paste it over.

### Private when you want it, shared when it's ready

Need to think something through alone or with one coworker? Open a Breakout, do the messy part there, and merge it back when it's ready. Rally knows who is allowed to see what, across people and connected tools alike.

### One price, however many people join

Rally is priced per organization, with one quota the team shares. Bring in the designer and the contractor without doing seat math first.
