| Kai's verdict | A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks. | S-tier for speed. When latency is the product, start here. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs. |
