In a recent comparative analysis of AI agents for financial advisory tasks, five leading platforms were evaluated based on their ease of setup and the quality of output produced when prompted to create a financial advisor. Each platform was given identical instructions to assist a user with $25,000 to invest while being $30,000 in debt. The results varied significantly across the platforms.
- OpenAI’s ChatGPT (8.5/10) emerged as the best option, recognized for its balanced features and ease of use. It offers both guided and manual setup options, excelling in contextual understanding and problem-solving. The AI agent, named MoneyGPT, provided a detailed financial plan with coherent reasoning.
- Google’s Gemini (7/10) followed closely, praised for its user-friendly interface and structured consultative approach, though it required more detailed prompts for effective results, often relying on well-defined questions before delivering advice.
- HuggingChat (6.5/10) appealed to users seeking customization but posed a steeper learning curve. Although it matched ChatGPT in output quality with a financial advisor called HuggingMoney, the complexity of setup may deter novices.
- Claude (5.5/10) from Anthropic presented solid capabilities but proved to be less intuitive, leading to vague outputs that necessitated careful prompting for useful financial advice, despite its strengths in context processing and strategic thinking.
- Mistral AI (5/10) struggled with basic numerical accuracy and required significant modification for effective use, resulting in the lowest score. While it had the potential for intuitive interaction and example-based learning, its interface catered more to developers than casual users.
Ultimately, this analysis indicates that while all platforms deliver varying levels of financial advice capabilities, OpenAI’s ChatGPT consistently provides the most effective and user-friendly experience for individuals without advanced technical skills.
