| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. | S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work. |
