| Best for | Engineering teams offloading tickets. Ops/platform work. | Teams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs. | ChatGPT Plus users who want images without paying extra. | People who want to hand off tasks entirely — trip planning, research, spreadsheet building. |

| Kai's verdict | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. |
