Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
