Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
