Kai's verdictS-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
