| Kai's verdict | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. |
