| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. | B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option. | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. |
