| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. The strongest 'no-code' AI builder right now. Great for founder MVPs. | A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic. | A-tier for creators training custom looks. B-tier for general use. |
