Kai's verdict	S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.	A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.	B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
