Weaknesses	Cold starts on less-popular models Pricing gets real at scale	Less feature-rich than Google Docs AI ceiling below dedicated tools	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	Pricey vs Claude/ChatGPT Less flexible than raw chatbot
Kai's verdict	S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.	A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	B-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency.
