| Kai's verdict | B-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. | A-tier. The best open model for Vietnamese + Chinese. Don't sleep on it if you work in SEA. | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. |
