Kai's verdictA-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
