| Kai's verdict | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. | S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down. | DeepInfra is the quiet workhorse of the inference API space — serious price performance on H100s, a genuinely clean OpenAI-compatible API, and now a native HF provider makes it a strong default choice for any team running open-source models at scale. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.) | A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs. |
