Read AI Users Now Have Direct Access to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude—For Free

May 2, 2025

AI is about simplifying workflows, not adding to them. With this in mind, starting today, Read AI is giving free unlimited access to the world's most powerful large language models for paid users:

  • OpenAI GPT-4.1
  • Anthropic Claude 3.7 Sonnet

Breaking Down Barriers: A New Era in AI Access

The world's fastest-growing meeting notetaker, with the most accessible enterprise search experience, is now adding direct access to LLMs from OpenAI and Anthropic in a groundbreaking industry move. With this addition, Read AI is the single subscription that  delivers immediate value across all your workflows in a single platform. Both OpenAI and Anthropic's paid plans start at $20 a month, while Read AI's paid plan starts at $15 a month and now includes both LLMs, dramatically disrupting the AI marketplace.  

"We're delivering a one-stop shop for productivity AI, where cost isn't a barrier to outcomes," said David Shim, Co-Founder and CEO of Read AI. "LLMs are commodities. Value comes from marrying content and context, which Read AI does better than anyone else. By adding premium LLMs to all paid plans, Read AI is tearing down the walled gardens to deliver AI to the masses."

Seamless Integration Across Enterprise Ecosystems

Read AI already consolidates and contextualizes content, topics, and insights from across the leading platforms with Search Copilot, and now paid customers have direct access to their data alongside the leading LLMs in an unprecedented integration:

Meetings:  Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom

Email:  Gmail, Outlook

Calendar:  Google Calendar, Outlook

Files:  Google Drive, Google Docs, Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft OneNote

CRM:  Hubspot, Salesforce

Work:  Notion, Confluence, Jira

LLMs: OpenAI GPT-4.1, Anthropic Claude 3.7 Sonnet

"When you eliminate cost as a consideration to AI, you allow productivity and outcomes to drive adoption. Read AI is built for the masses, and is the one place to drive productivity and outcomes with direct access to Anthropic and OpenAI in Read AI's Search Copilot, representing a pivotal shift in how businesses and individuals will access AI tools going forward," said Shim.

How Read AI Makes Premium LLMs Accessible

"While foundational models will continuously evolve, Read AI remains the constant that understands your unique context and content. We're not just delivering today's best LLMs—we're providing seamless access to whatever comes next, eliminating the cold start problem and ensuring AI truly enhances how you work, not just what you produce,” said Shim.

Read AI's unique position enables it to include premium LLMs like GPT-4.1 and Claude 3.7 Sonnet at no additional cost. Its users already rely on Read AI as their primary AI solution, significantly reducing their need for standalone LLM queries. When they do require these models, having them integrated within the Read AI environment creates a more efficient workflow by eliminating context switching and ensuring all organizational data remains accessible. 

This integration is economically sustainable because Read AI's proprietary models handle the majority of context-intensive tasks, while third-party LLMs are leveraged selectively for specific functions and will be further integrated in the very near future. By bringing everything together in one platform, Read AI is creating a superior user experience that eliminates multiple subscriptions while maximizing productivity—all at a price point below what users would pay for these LLMs alone.
