| Kai's verdict | S-tier for kids learning. The tutoring UX is legit — not a generic chatbot dressed up. | S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. |
