| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. | A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic. | A-tier for sales teams. B-tier for solo users. |
