Kai's verdictA-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
