Kai's verdictS-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic.S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.
