| Kai's verdict | B-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. | A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead. | A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license. |
