Which AI Coding Tool Should I Choose for Daily Work (Copilot, Codex, or Claude)?

I’m currently deciding which AI tool to invest in for my everyday coding tasks, and I’d really appreciate some advice from developers who are already using these tools in real projects.

With the introduction of Codex-based capabilities, I’m considering whether I should go for GitHub Copilot along with Codex, or choose something like Claude for daily use.

My situation:

• I’m working across two jobs, so productivity and speed matter a lot
• I need help with regular coding tasks, debugging, and understanding code flows
• I’m looking for something that is reliable, fast, and cost-effective

What I’m trying to figure out:

• Is GitHub Copilot + Codex a better combo for real-world development?
• Or is Claude better for deeper reasoning and handling complex tasks?
• Which one gives the best value if you’re coding daily for long hours?

Would love to hear what you all are using and what you’d recommend for someone managing multiple projects/jobs.
