Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
