| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters. | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. |
