Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Best for cinematic image-to-video. Pair with Runway for coverage.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
