| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters. | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. |
