Kai's verdictA-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.
