| Kai's verdict | A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic. | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today. |
