Reviewer scorecard
“The most mature AI API with the largest ecosystem. Function calling, JSON mode, and assistants API cover every use case.”
“Non-negotiable for any serious component library. Visual testing, docs, and interaction testing in one place.”
“Reliability has improved significantly. The ecosystem and tooling around OpenAI's API remain unmatched.”
“Setup can be painful and builds are slow, but the alternative — no component isolation — is worse.”
“OpenAI set the standard for AI APIs. The Assistants API and real-time API point toward increasingly capable agent platforms.”
“The best way to browse and understand a design system. Addons for accessibility and responsive testing are invaluable.”
