I believe there is a 7 day free trial - just use it.
My observations:
The good:
*AI features can make quick edits that will look pleasing to most audiences
*Includes a bunch of presets that you might actually use
*Good set of features like orton effect, skin smoothing, etc that normally require you to move into Photoshop
The bad:
*AI filters can create some weird looking artifacts (obvious haloing, etc) sometimes, especially when turned all of the way up - nothing you can do to fix it.
*Slow. The software is quite sluggish even on very fast computers with SSDs.
*The bad handling of edges in the AI features doesn't give me much confidence for the rest of the functionality
*Apparently the app is not color managed. ON A PHOTO EDITING APP

If you don't want to pay a dime:
RawTherapee: https://rawtherapee.com/
DarkTable: https://www.darktable.org/
Both are quite good. I have used RawTherapee, it has a steep learning curve (at first), but has some tricks, including simulations. If you are using Sony or Fuji, have a look at CaptureOne Express instead.

Too bad both don't support EOS RP yet
