Kai's verdictA-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful.
