Competitive Position
Gemini’s strength is distribution — it ships inside every Google product reaching billions of users. The 1M+ context window is a technical differentiator. It competes head-to-head with ChatGPT on features while leveraging Google’s search and data moat. Weakest in brand perception as a standalone product.
