Kai's verdictS-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.
