  • Model quality varies
  • Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney

Kai's verdictS-tier. Category-defining UX. If you take notes in meetings, switch this week.A genuinely interesting evolution of video search that could make YouTube feel more like a knowledge engine, but it's still early-stage, US-locked, and paywalled behind Premium — watch this space rather than rerouting your workflow around it yet. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
