Most teams evaluating AI platforms hit the same question: should we standardize on one vendor's official solution, or use a platform that connects multiple AI models?
ChatGPT Business offers OpenAI's models in a managed workspace with per-seat pricing and enterprise security. Menturi takes a different approach: one workspace that integrates ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other models, plus native connections to your internal documentation.
Neither is universally "better"—it depends on whether you prioritize single-vendor simplicity or multi-model flexibility.
Here's how they actually compare on pricing, features, and security.
If you only read one section, read this. Here’s the quick side-by-side of what you actually get with each product, and where the differences matter most in day-to-day use.
Real cost for a 10-person team: $250-$350/month
Real cost for a 10-person team: $99.9-$149.9/month
ChatGPT Business is OpenAI's official workspace—you're paying for single-vendor simplicity and OpenAI's enterprise support. Menturi consolidates multiple AI tools into one workspace with admin controls, so you're not paying separate subscriptions per model.
| Team Size | Menturi (Standard Plan) | ChatGPT Business Cost | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-person team | $29.97/month | $75-$105/month | Save $45–$75/mo |
| 10-person team | $99.90/month | $250-$350/month | Save $150–$250/mo |
| 25-person team | $249.75/month | $625-$875/month | Save $375–$625/mo |
| 50-person team | $499.50/month | $1,250-$1,750/month | Save $751–$1,251/mo |
Menturi is for teams that want one AI workspace without being tied to a single vendor. Use ChatGPT alongside other top models in the same place, switch models mid-chat, and choose the best option for writing, analysis, research, or design without hopping between tools.
On top of that, Menturi includes specialised modes (Writer, Analyst, Coder, Researcher, Designer, and more). Instead of starting from a blank prompt, your team starts with the right workflow, which helps keep outputs consistent.
ChatGPT Business is a solid fit if your team wants to standardize on OpenAI and keep everything in one official workspace. For many teams, that simplicity is the main draw.
Menturi connects to your internal documentation so your team gets answers based on your sources. Connect Google Drive, Notion, or Confluence, choose what to sync, and Menturi can use those documents while responding. This makes onboarding, SOPs, product docs, and internal FAQs easy to find and reuse.
ChatGPT Business can work with internal files, but it’s often driven by what’s uploaded into a workspace or a specific chat. It’s not typically set up as a persistent, always-connected layer across your knowledge base, so keeping answers aligned with the latest internal docs can take more manual effort.
Menturi is designed for teams who work in chat. You can share conversations, collaborate in threads, add or remove teammates from chats, and keep private chats private. You can also turn AI replies on or off when needed, which is useful when a discussion should stay human-only.
ChatGPT Business supports organization workspaces and sharing, but it’s still primarily designed around individual usage. Collaboration works, but it’s not as “team-chat-first” as Menturi.
Menturi gives admins visibility into usage and spend. You can track usage over time, see activity by employee, export CSV reports for accounting, and restrict specific models if you want tighter control over costs.
ChatGPT Business uses per-seat pricing, which is straightforward to budget for. However, it generally offers less granular control over model access and how usage is distributed across different tools and workflows, especially if your team ends up using multiple vendors.
Menturi has SOC 2 Type 2 certification in progress (expected Q1 2026), runs annual penetration testing, encrypts data at rest and in transit, and supports role-based access controls. For many SMB teams (under 100 people), this is a practical security setup for business use.
ChatGPT Business is SOC 2 Type 2 certified and comes with enterprise-grade security controls. OpenAI provides security documentation, and buying directly from the model provider can simplify procurement for organizations with strict vendor requirements.

For many teams, yes, especially if you want multi-model access plus knowledge base connections. If your organization is required to use OpenAI’s official product for compliance or procurement reasons, ChatGPT Business may still be the better fit.
Yes. Menturi is built for collaboration with shared chats, team workflows, and admin controls.
Menturi helps by combining shared conversations, specialised modes (like Writer, Analyst, Researcher), and optional knowledge base connections. That way, your team can reuse the same context and sources instead of starting from scratch in separate chats.
Yes. Menturi can connect to tools like Google Drive, Notion, and Confluence, so people can ask questions and get answers based on internal docs (depending on what you choose to index and share).
Yes. Menturi includes admin controls that let you manage access and set limits so teams can use advanced models where it makes sense, without creating surprise costs.
Menturi is a subscription with shared monthly credits across the team, plus the option to add more if needed. For most teams, that’s a more predictable way to manage usage than juggling separate subscriptions for different models and tools.
