Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.
