| Kai's verdict | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. | Stripe Link is the most credible first move toward a real agentic payment layer — the one-time-use card model is genuinely clever, and the existing merchant network gives it a head start no startup wallet can match. But the 'approve every transaction' UX will get old fast, and the hard part (autonomous spending with guardrails) is still on the roadmap. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.) | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. |
