Kai's verdictS-tier. Category-defining UX. If you take notes in meetings, switch this week.A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
