Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.
