| 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. | S-tier for teachers. If you teach K-12, start here this week. | B-tier overall, A-tier if GDPR/data residency matters. Solid backup option. |
