| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class. | S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs. | A-tier for designer-led sites. S-tier if animations matter. |
