| Kai's verdict | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. | A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros. |
