| Kai's verdict | S-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. | A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. |
