Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
