| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses. | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. | S-tier. Market leader with reason. Start here for serious video. |
