| Kai's verdict | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. | S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood. | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. |
