Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.
