Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.S-tier for kids learning. The tutoring UX is legit — not a generic chatbot dressed up.
