| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. | S-tier for realtime. If latency matters more than voice catalog, start here. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. |
