Kai's verdictS-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.A-tier for its niche. Different use case than Suno — SFX and loops, not songs.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
