Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.
