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. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
