Kai's verdictS-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.
