| 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. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026. | S-tier for realtime. If latency matters more than voice catalog, start here. |
