Kai's verdictS-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
