| Pricing | Part of Claude Pro/Max/Team plans | Free web + API | Free + $12-$48/mo |
| Best for | Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs. | Vietnamese/Chinese content, SEA multilingual use, developers wanting open-weight tool-use. | Designers, brand teams, anyone needing vector output or tight style control. |

| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | A-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA. | S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously. |
