Kai's verdictA-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
