Both Jenkins and Pythonanywhere can be used to run python scripts. In Pythonanywhere I can host python as web application using flask and call using https. The same is possible in Jenkins also?

If yes, then what additional features are present in Jenkins and Pythonanywhere?

I've never even heard of Jenkins, what is it?

I'm guessing https://jenkins.io is it... Doesn't seem that similar to the best Python hosting service in the world...

(I may be biased.)

I'm not sure that Jenkins is really designed for web hosting; it's more of a continuous integration platform where you can constantly run tests against your code and automatically deploy it to servers when the tests all pass. As far as I'm aware, they don't provide servers to deploy to -- you'd have to rent or buy those somewhere else, and you'd need to do system administration to keep them up-to-date and running smoothly.
