| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier if you already pay Gemini. B-tier standalone. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. | S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time. |
