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. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.	S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.
