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 local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.
