Weaknesses	Less agentic than Cursor/Claude Code Model quality varies	General output behind Midjourney Can be overwhelming	Aesthetic ceiling below Midjourney + Ideogram Text rendering worse than Ideogram No fine control	Pricey for casual use Fiction-only focus — not for business writing
Kai's verdict	B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.	A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use.	B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.	S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.
