Kai's verdictS-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.
