Weaknesses	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney + Ideogram Text rendering worse than Ideogram No fine control	Pricey for casual use Fiction-only focus — not for business writing	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney Less style variety	UX is rough for English speakers Queue times
Kai's verdict	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.
