Kai's verdictA-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.A-tier for its niche. Different use case than Suno — SFX and loops, not songs.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.
