Claude vs GPT-4 vs Gemini: Which One Actually Helps You Ship Faster?
After running the same content pipeline on all three, here's what I found.
The Setup
Same prompt, same task: write a technical blog post about AI agents.
- Claude 3.5 Sonnet
- GPT-4
- Gemini 1.5 Pro
Results
| Model | Time to first draft | Revisions needed | Actual useable? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claude | 4:32 | 2 | Yes |
| GPT-4 | 5:12 | 4 | Mostly |
| Gemini | 3:45 | 6 | Partially |
The Catch
Gemini was fastest but needed the most hand-holding. Claude was the sweet spot. GPT-4 was... reliable but generic.
When to use what
- Ship fast: Gemini (if you have time to fix)
- Best quality: Claude
- Just need something: GPT-4
