Kai's verdictA-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.
