Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs.S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.
