Kai's verdict	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.	A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.	S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.
