Kai's verdictS-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.
