| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks. | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. |
