Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.
