| Best for | Teams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs. | PMs, founders, non-devs shipping MVPs. | Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs. | Essays, long-form drafts, thinking on the page. |

| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Best for fast prototypes. Competitive with Lovable — try both. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form. |
