| Kai's verdict | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. | A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters. |
