Where each approach fits

Choose a simple chat for a one-off question with no external work. Choose a connected workflow when the result depends on your accounts, current sources or a saved task.

A useful way to compare

  • Identify what the task needs beyond text generation
  • Check which sources and actions are supported
  • Review whether the final output actually changes your situation

What this comparison does not establish

Do not assume a product called a chatbot lacks tools or that a product called an agent can finish every task.
