Weaknesses	General output behind Midjourney Can be overwhelming	Still catching up on quality vs Kling/Runway Less control than pros need	Terminal-based — learning curve Can't be used without Claude subscription	Less hyped than Midjourney Learning curve for non-designers
Kai's verdict	A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.	A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone.	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.
