Kai's verdictA-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.
