Kai's verdict	S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down.	S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.	B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
