Kai's verdict	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.	A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.
