Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
