| Kai's verdict | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. | A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. |
