| Kai's verdict | A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for teachers. If you teach K-12, start here this week. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. |
