| Kai's verdict | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. | A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. |
