| Kai's verdict | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. | A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | A-tier. Great price/performance. Go here if ElevenLabs is too expensive. |
