Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.
