Agent access

   ChatGPT~partialprobed5/10

   ChatGPT's Browser and MCP features let a user direct the agent to fetch and use third-party documentation or websites (e.g. Context7 for developer docs, browsing arbitrary URLs), which would technically allow pointing it at an llms.txt or agent-oriented doc page. The evidence pack also shows ChatGPT's own docs site publishes an llms.txt (probe-1), indicating familiarity with the convention, but there is no explicit documented feature or example of a user instructing ChatGPT to consume an llms.txt file specifically. Missing for 10: explicit product support/example for llms.txt ingestion, confirmation that browsing normalizes/parses such files as agent-context rather than generic web content, independent hands-on verification.

   Docs show ChatGPT can search the web, browse multiple sources, compare them, and produce cited results in-chat (docs-86, docs-90), and can turn research into finished documents/reports (docs-66, docs-68, docs-60). However, there is no explicit mention of a dedicated 'Deep Research' autonomous multi-source research mode/run with a structured long-form cited report as its own distinct feature — the evidence only shows general web-search-with-citations and document drafting capabilities. missing for 10: an explicitly named deep-research mode, evidence of autonomous long-running multi-source research runs, and a structured final cited-report output format.

   Gemini Apps has a documented Deep Research feature that conducts in-depth, real-time research across sources and allows adding personal sources (Gmail, Drive, uploads, NotebookLM notebooks) for the research, matching the autonomous multi-source research story. missing for 10: explicit documentation of citation formatting in the final report and independent hands-on evidence of report quality/citation accuracy from third parties.

   ChatGPT✓fullcommunity8/10

   ChatGPT's web search docs explicitly state that search results and citations appear in chat when web search is used, and describe searching, browsing, comparing sources, and summarizing findings — directly matching the story. Community feedback shows mixed satisfaction with search accuracy (e.g., comparisons to Perplexity, a weather inaccuracy) but doesn't concretely show citations failing to appear, so this doesn't rise to a dispute. Missing for 10: independent verification of citation accuracy/consistency across many queries and no first-party detail on citation formatting/source diversity.

   Gemini's Deep Research feature explicitly supports 'in-depth and real-time research on almost any subject,' implying grounded, current-web-based answers, and users can add further sources for research context. However, the evidence pack never explicitly documents inline citation links back to specific web sources, nor independent confirmation that citations are reliably shown. Missing for 10: explicit documentation of citation/source-linking UI, independent verification that citations are accurate and consistently displayed.

   Only a single explicit doc line notes that a workspace administrator can control access to ChatGPT Work, plugins, browser use, and network access, plus general mentions of GPT builders using 'approved workspace apps' and data controls applying to processed content. There is no evidence of a full admin console covering member invitation/removal, granular role-based permissions, or explicit data retention/training-opt-out policy controls. missing for 10: admin console/member management UI, granular role/permission settings, explicit data-retention and training-opt-out policy controls, independent corroboration of these admin features.

   Evidence only shows end-user features (image generation, Live conversations, notebooks, connected apps) and passing mentions that a 'work or school account' administrator can 'enable Gemini,' but there is no evidence of an admin console for managing members, setting permissions, or configuring org-wide data policies.

   The evidence pack contains no mention of data export, account data download, or chat history export features anywhere in the docs, community, or probe results; there is only a passing reference to 'data controls' applying to Computer Use content, which does not address exporting complete chat history or account data. Missing for 10: any documentation of an export data feature, its scope (chats, files, settings), format, or process, and any independent corroboration it works.

   ChatGPT—none0/10

   The evidence pack covers ChatGPT's agentic/feature capabilities (Codex, Work, MCP, Computer Use, etc.) but contains no documentation or mention of data controls, training opt-out settings, or 'Improve the model for everyone' toggles that let a user control whether their conversations are used for model training.

   ⚑ flag

   Gemini✓fullclaimed8/10

   Google's own support docs state that by default chats/uploaded files aren't used to improve generative AI models unless a user opts in via 'Keep Activity', and that users can review, delete activity, or turn off Keep Activity at any time; separately, users must explicitly consent to let Google use Gemini Live audio/video for model training. This gives knowledge-workers clear, documented control over whether conversations feed model training. Missing for 10: independent/hands-on verification that these settings work as described and clarity on enterprise/Workspace account defaults.
