AI Showdown 2026: Everything Just Changed

Pre-Recorded - Watch on Demand 

Six months ago you picked a side. Since then, everything changed.

Since March OpenAI has shipped GPT-5.5 and GPT-Live, Anthropic has kept pushing Claude's agentic capability forward, and Microsoft has folded Copilot straight into the Microsoft 365 plan most practices already pay for. Whatever verdict you reached last time is out of date.

In this session we show you which tool is best for which accounting tasks and situations, testing ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Gemini live on whatever each vendor's most current release is on the day, so you see the actual differences rather than take anyone's word for it.

What's covered

• Which tool wins for which task and situation, tested live across all four
• What's actually changed in Claude's agentic performance for multi-step reconciliation and compliance work
• What the Copilot-in-Microsoft-365 bundle means now it's likely already in your practice's licence
• Straightforward price-per-seat maths for a practice choosing between tools in 2026
• Our verdict: which tool for which job

Who it is for: Accountants and bookkeepers who want a clear-eyed comparison before renewing or switching tools, not another vendor pitch.
