Kai's verdictA-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.A-tier for its niche. Different use case than Suno — SFX and loops, not songs.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
