| Kai's verdict | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month. | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. |
