Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter.S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.
