| Kai's verdict | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. | A-tier. Best for cinematic image-to-video. Pair with Runway for coverage. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. |
