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 if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option.
