Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.B-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.
