| Kai's verdict | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins. | A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this. | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. |
