| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | If you've ever rage-quit trying to fine-tune Whisper on a niche language or domain, smol-audio is the cookbook you wished existed — transparent, practical, and actually runs on free Colab. It's a practitioner's toolkit, not a product, but that's exactly what makes it useful. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.) | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. |
