| Kai's verdict | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. | S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. |
