| Kai's verdict | B-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. | S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone. | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. |
