Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. Great price/performance. Go here if ElevenLabs is too expensive.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
