Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.
