Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.
