| Tagline | Microsoft/GitHub's autocomplete. Deep VS Code + JetBrains integration. | Vector + raster AI for designers. Actually controls the output. | One API, every model. Pay-as-you-go, no subscriptions. | Google's video model. Baked into Gemini + YouTube Shorts. |
| Category | Coding | Image | Dev Platform | Video |

| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously. | S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing. | A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone. |
