| Question | Offivelle | Gemini Spark |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free app. Agents use your own ChatGPT plan (through Codex) or Claude plan (through Claude Code, which draws on your plan’s monthly agent credit, then extra usage), or free models on your Mac. Offivelle sells no AI credits. | Google AI Pro ($19.99 a month) or Ultra.1 |
| Where you can get it | Every country. The app speaks 11 languages, and agents answer in yours. | Every country with Gemini except the EEA, the UK, Switzerland and Nigeria.2 |
| Where it runs | Your Mac (macOS 13 or later). Chat and approvals from your phone through Telegram, or the phone app on your Wi-Fi or Tailscale. Your own Linux server with Docker. Windows is coming. | Google’s cloud, around the clock. Phone app, Mac app and web.2 |
| Which AI does the work | Your choice: ChatGPT (through OpenAI’s Codex), Claude (through Anthropic’s Claude Code) or free local models through Ollama. Pick several and they back each other up. | Gemini only.2 |
| One agent or a team | A team: a CEO who plans the work and hires from 46 roles in 13 departments. Several people can share a company, with roles from viewer to admin. | Personal accounts only.2 |
| Approvals | Emails, publishing and spending wait for your OK, on the Mac or by Telegram. “Always allow” rules for what you trust, a daily budget, and one tap pauses everyone. | Asks before sending, buying and submitting forms; runs while you’re offline may not be stoppable.2 |

| Works with your computer off | While your Mac is on, or around the clock on your own server. | Yes: it runs in Google’s cloud.2 |
| Its face | A 3D office of people whose looks you choose; bring your own 3D characters. | Not published |
