Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.
