Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to.B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.
