| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic. | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. |
