Kai's verdict	A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone.	S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
