Best for	Designers already on Figma.	Replacing Google for any question where you want a cited answer in seconds.	ChatGPT Plus users who want images without paying extra.	Engineering teams offloading tickets. Ops/platform work.
Strengths	First drafts with Make Designs Rename/rearrange layers automatically Natural language asset search	Sources every claim Fast, current answers Pro Search runs multi-step research Spaces for persistent context	Excellent prompt understanding Built into ChatGPT — no extra subscription Good at composition + concepts	Works like an engineer — takes Slack tasks, opens PRs Handles multi-hour engineering work Reports back with what it did
Weaknesses	Features vary by plan + region Still rolling out	Not a general chatbot Answers can be shallow on complex topics	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney + Ideogram Text rendering worse than Ideogram No fine control	Expensive Best for well-scoped tasks Not for solo hobbyists
Kai's verdict	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.	S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.
