Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python.
