Weaknesses
  • Still pre-launch / beta — zero proven track record and no public pricing yet
  • iPhone-only by design, which immediately locks out half the smartphone market
  • Battery drain and privacy concerns from constant ambient context scanning are real and unresolved
  • Not a full Excel replacement for heavy users
  • Integrations best on paid tiers
  • Harder to use than hosted tools
  • Needs infra
  • Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney
  • Tied to Adobe subscription
Kai's verdictThe 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. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
