| Kai's verdict | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. | A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this. | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. |
