| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for multilingual video. If you sell courses or speak at events, this is a cheat code. | A-tier. S-tier if you self-host. The reason open-source image gen matters. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. |
