| Kai's verdict | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. |
