Kai's verdictB-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier for its niche. Different use case than Suno — SFX and loops, not songs.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
