Where Nova is strong

Nova stays on the Mac you are already using. It drafts the event, the mail, the reminder, and waits until you confirm. It can point at a button. You click.

Where the other goes further

ChatGPT is the better place for a long chat in their app, and for the models OpenAI ships there. Nova can use an OpenAI key you bring. It is not that chat window.
