Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
