Weaknesses	Smaller community Model selection more limited	Not for full songs with vocals Shorter generation limits	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney Tied to Adobe subscription
Kai's verdict	A-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. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
