Kai's verdictB-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
