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 in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.	A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.
