## Review summary

Reviewers praise Graphite for being intuitive, fast, and offering a wide range of sketch styles. The free tier is usable, and outputs are high-quality. However, many users flag subscription pricing and management problems, reliability issues and bugs, and limited filters for professional needs. Some note updates are less favorable than earlier versions and desire more control. Overall, strong creative potential tempered by pricing, stability, and filter variety concerns.

### Pros
