| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results. | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. |
