| Kai's verdict | S-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. | A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone. | B-tier. Useful for first drafts. v0 is the better bet for shipping code. |
