Kai's verdictS-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
