Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
