Kai's verdictS-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
