Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.
