Kai's verdict	S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone.	A-tier for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.
