Kai's verdictS-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.
