Kai's verdict	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
