  • Less well-known outside Asia
Kai's verdictS-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA.
