| Kai's verdict | A-tier for sales teams. B-tier for solo users. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. |
