  • Still rough on complex scenes
Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.A-tier. Great price/performance. Go here if ElevenLabs is too expensive.The concept is genuinely compelling — turning the home screen into a living AI layer is a smarter bet than yet another chat interface — but this is vaporware until it ships publicly and we see whether Apple's sandbox lets it breathe. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)A-tier for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.
