Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier for sales teams. B-tier for solo users.S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood.
