Kai's verdict	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.	S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
