+Many of the things you can do with Blink are also possible with ChatGPT, Claude Web, or Claude Code. Blink shines when you need to:
+
+- Retain control of your data and infrastructure. Blink runs on your own servers, and agents can use any LLM provider: be it Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex, or a self-hosted model.
+- Centralize your conversations. Compared to Claude Code, all conversations are stored in a single database.
+- Centralize access. Blink lets you define access controls to your agents in a single place.
+- Fully control the source code of your agents. Blink is open source.
