Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.
