Best for	Developers. Non-developers who want to ship working code.	Anyone who wants top-tier video quality for less.	Podcasters, course creators, anyone editing talking-head content.	Teams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs.
Strengths	Tab completion feels like mind-reading Composer for multi-file edits Runs Claude, GPT, Gemini — you pick	Very strong motion + physics Often beats Runway on realism Great price	Edit audio/video by deleting text Overdub (voice clone) for fixes Strong collaboration + remote recording	Great enterprise story Works in your existing IDE Chat + autocomplete
Weaknesses	Can feel overwhelming for non-coders Expensive at scale	UX is rough for English speakers Queue times	Not a traditional NLE — some workflows awkward Overdub ethics require care	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies
Kai's verdict	S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.	A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.	S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.
