Strengths	Tens of thousands of models (image, video, audio, LLMs) One-line API for any model Cog framework for custom model deploy	Excellent prompt understanding Built into ChatGPT — no extra subscription Good at composition + concepts	First drafts with Make Designs Rename/rearrange layers automatically Natural language asset search	Actually uses websites — fills forms, clicks, checks out Built into ChatGPT Good for repetitive web tasks
Weaknesses	Cold starts on less-popular models Pricing gets real at scale	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney + Ideogram Text rendering worse than Ideogram No fine control	Features vary by plan + region Still rolling out	Slow vs doing it yourself Breaks on complex auth flows $200/mo gate
Kai's verdict	S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.	B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
