	Claude Code S	Cursor S	Fathom S	Figma AI A
Tagline	Anthropic's CLI agent. Opus-powered, operates on your repo directly.	VS Code fork that made AI coding actually work.	Meeting notes, free forever for individuals.	AI features baked into the design tool you already use.
Category	coding	coding	meeting	design
Pricing	Part of Claude Pro/Max/Team plans	Free + $20/mo Pro + $40/mo Business	Free for individuals + $15-$29/user/mo teams	Included with Figma plans
Best for	Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs.	Developers. Non-developers who want to ship working code.	Solo operators, freelancers, small teams on a budget.	Designers already on Figma.
Strengths	Runs locally, edits your actual files Strong on large codebases with 1M context Great at multi-step tasks	Tab completion feels like mind-reading Composer for multi-file edits Runs Claude, GPT, Gemini — you pick	Unlimited free tier for solo use Strong summaries + action items Works in Zoom, Meet, Teams	First drafts with Make Designs Rename/rearrange layers automatically Natural language asset search
Weaknesses	Terminal-based — learning curve Can't be used without Claude subscription	Can feel overwhelming for non-coders Expensive at scale	Bot-joining model Team features gated	Features vary by plan + region Still rolling out
Kai's verdict	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.	S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down.	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.
