Kai's verdict	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.	A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.
