Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.S-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
