Weaknesses	Reasoning quality varies by mode Can be verbose Confabulates on niche facts	Smaller community Model selection more limited	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	Bot joining is intrusive UX feels dated
Kai's verdict	S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it.	A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.
