| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform. | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. |
