Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work.S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.
