| Tagline | Microsoft/GitHub's autocomplete. Deep VS Code + JetBrains integration. | Chat with your data. Upload a CSV, ask questions, get charts. | Autonomous AI agent that actually finishes tasks. | Cognition Labs' autonomous coding engineer. |

| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. |
