Kai's verdictA-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
