Needs a lot of improvement
Lots of bugs and issues. The AI doesn't just suggest — it learns from my preferences over time. Reduced the time I spend on this task by about 70%.

Does the job well
Mostly great, minor complaints. The outputs require minimal editing — saves so much back-and-forth. It integrates well with VS Code / Slack / Notion — my daily drivers. Wish the free tier had slightly higher limits. Best tool in this category, hands down.
