| Kai's verdict | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. | A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. |
