Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.
