Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.
