| Kai's verdict | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood. | B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately. |
