| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option. | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. | A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards. |
