Best for	Designers already on Figma.	Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs.	Anyone in Creative Cloud. Brands that need copyright clarity.	Replacing Google for any question where you want a cited answer in seconds.
Strengths	First drafts with Make Designs Rename/rearrange layers automatically Natural language asset search	Runs locally, edits your actual files Strong on large codebases with 1M context Great at multi-step tasks	Trained on licensed content — commercially safe Generative Fill in Photoshop is incredible Native to Adobe ecosystem	Sources every claim Fast, current answers Pro Search runs multi-step research Spaces for persistent context
Weaknesses	Features vary by plan + region Still rolling out	Terminal-based — learning curve Can't be used without Claude subscription	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney Tied to Adobe subscription	Not a general chatbot Answers can be shallow on complex topics
Kai's verdict	A-tier. No reason not to use it if you're on Figma. Not worth switching for.	S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.	S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.	S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.
