  • Strong collaboration + remote recording
Weaknesses
  • Developer-only
  • You build the UI
  • Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney

Kai's verdictS-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.
