Kai's verdictA-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work.
