The best AI Chatbots productivity tools in 2025

ChatGPT is getting more impressive every year, but that’s just one app in a sea of possibilities. Right now, there’s a bit of everything for nearly every productivity problem: from new intelligent features on apps you already love, to entirely new platforms with jaw-dropping functionality.

I’ve been playing around with AI tools for a while now, and I’ve continued to update this list with lots of research and testing from me and the team at Zapier. With that, here are more than 60 AI productivity tools that

1. AI chatbots

The best place to start is the category that brought AI to the mainstream. AI chatbots allow you to chat with an AI large language model, letting you ask questions and get answers in a conversational style. The best chatbots use advanced reasoning and logic, write code, and make mathematical calculations.

Take a look at the full list of chatbots in our article on the best AI chatbots.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT is the current industry leader, and the first chatbot that set the scene on fire. Now powered by GPT-4o, 4o-mini and the o1 reasoning model, it’s surprisingly flexible and very easy to use. Learn how to use ChatGPT, understand how it works, and discover how to use it to write marketing copy, do market research, or write sales emails.

Claude

Anthropic’s safe and creative chatbot, Claude builds Artifacts: it can code simple interactive interfaces, write documents in a separate tab, or even design games for you. Make changes with prompts on the left side of the screen and see them come into shape on the right.

Meta AI

Meta AI, available only in the U.S. for now, is the first step toward a bigger integration of AI features across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. In addition to answering your questions, you can generate images and short animations with a prompt.

Later, you may be able to use Meta AI as you browse Meta’s social media platforms, generating content and crushing the massive amount of feed data into more digestible insights about your friends and followers.

Zapier Agents

Zapier Agents is an experimental AI workspace where you can teach AI agents to work across thousands of apps. But the interface is a chatbot, which means that creating your own AI agent is as simple as using ChatGPT.

Start by giving your agent access to your company’s source of truth in apps like HubSpot, Notion, and Airtable. You can ask it about your data as well as all the data in your apps—and data sources will sync automatically.

And you can train your agents to work even while you’re not there: tell your agent what to do when it’s triggered, how to process or summarize data, and which actions it should take, all without writing a line of code. These agents are like mini-teammates who help you with specific tasks, like analyzing your spreadsheets, searching the web, or drafting responses to customers.
