Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone.
