Kai's verdictA-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
