Gmail vs ProtonMail: What are the differences?

Developers describe Gmail as "A free web-based e-mail service". An easy to use email app that saves you time and keeps your messages safe. Get your messages instantly via push notifications, read and respond online & offline, and find any message quickly. On the other hand, ProtonMail is detailed as "Secure email with no compromises". It is the world's largest secure email service, developed by CERN and MIT scientists. We are open source and protected by Swiss privacy law.

Gmail and ProtonMail can be primarily classified as "Email Services" tools.
