Kai's verdict	S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.	B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
