Our verdict: DeepSeek
Excellent choice for SMBs with small budgets who want powerful AI without paying. Ideal for writing, analysis, and code. Avoid DeepSeek for sensitive customer data or industries subject to data localization constraints. In those cases, prefer Claude or ChatGPT with GDPR guarantees.
Our verdict: Qwen Chat
Interesting for e-commerce SMBs with Asian partners, or for developers seeking a highly competitive AI API in price. For general-purpose SMB use in a Western market, ChatGPT or Claude offer better support, better integration with the European ecosystem, and greater clarity on GDPR compliance.
