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. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.
