Counteroffer and ChatGPT can both talk about salary negotiation, but they work very differently. ChatGPT is a flexible general assistant: with good prompting it can offer reasonable ideas, but you do the driving, and it has no benchmark grounding and nothing ready to send. Counteroffer is purpose-built: one paste of your offer in, a structured packet out with a market-rate benchmark, the exact number to counter, scripted talking points, a ready-to-send email, and timing advice. This is educational career coaching, not legal, financial, or HR advice. Here is the side by side.
