Kai's verdictA-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python.A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.
