Kai's verdictA-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.A-tier for its niche. Different use case than Suno — SFX and loops, not songs.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work.
