Best forTeams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs.Developers. Non-developers who want to ship working code.People who want to hand off tasks entirely — trip planning, research, spreadsheet building.Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs.

  • Great at multi-step tasks
Weaknesses
  • Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code
  • Model quality varies
  • Can feel overwhelming for non-coders
  • Expensive at scale
  • Still hit-or-miss on complex multi-hour tasks
  • Can burn credits fast
  • Terminal-based — learning curve
  • Can't be used without Claude subscription
Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
