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.A-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA.S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.
