| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs. | A-tier. Best for cinematic image-to-video. Pair with Runway for coverage. |
