Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
