| Kai's verdict | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | S-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses. | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. | B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option. |
