Kai's verdictS-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
