Kai's verdictS-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.B-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.
