Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.S-tier for reasoning and writing. If you only pay for one chatbot, pay for this one — especially for long work.
