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 creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here.
