Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins.
