| Kai's verdict | A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. |
