| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results. | S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work. | A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter. |
