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.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.	S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
