| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. |
