Kai's verdictS-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 for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.
