	Claude Code S	Cursor S	Lex A	Figma AI A
Tagline	Anthropic's CLI agent. Opus-powered, operates on your repo directly.	VS Code fork that made AI coding actually work.	Google Docs with an AI collaborator baked in.	AI features baked into the design tool you already use.
Category	coding	coding	writing	design
Pricing	Part of Claude Pro/Max/Team plans	Free + $20/mo Pro + $40/mo Business	Free + $12/mo	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.	Essays, long-form drafts, thinking on the page.	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	Clean writing UX — distraction-free +++ prompt triggers AI help Collaboration + AI feedback together	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	Less feature-rich than Google Docs AI ceiling below dedicated tools	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.	A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.
