Kai's verdictA-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.The concept is genuinely compelling — turning the home screen into a living AI layer is a smarter bet than yet another chat interface — but this is vaporware until it ships publicly and we see whether Apple's sandbox lets it breathe. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.)A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python.
