Kai's verdictS-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.
