Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Best for fast prototypes. Competitive with Lovable — try both.
