Kai's verdict	S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing.	A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks.
