Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
