| Kai's verdict | A-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. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. | S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here. |
