## Summary

The article offers a step‑by‑step guide for anyone who pays for an AI service and later wants to move to another. It outlines how to audit current contracts, export settings, and avoid losing custom instructions, files, or work‑in‑progress when changing from ChatGPT to Claude or Gemini. The free section explains pricing basics – ChatGPT Plus costs $20 per month, Claude’s Pro plan is $20 per month or $200 per year, its Max tier starts at $100 per month, and Gemini is free; Google’s AI Plus, Pro and Ultra plans are listed without yen prices. The paid section provides a fill‑in contract decision table, a before‑and‑after checklist, three ready‑made AI prompts for handover, and a fictional example showing how an office worker could use them.

The author stresses checking billing renewal dates, cancellation windows, and export options in each service’s help center before canceling. By documenting usage needs and contract terms first, users can avoid panic when a subscription ends. The piece is part of an experiment on monetizing AI‑generated content and links to earlier work on Gemini’s free tier.

Overall, the guide is meant to help marketers and small‑business owners keep their workflows intact while evaluating which AI subscription best fits their needs.
