Kai's verdictS-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.
