Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter.
