Kai's verdictS-tier infrastructure. The one platform every AI dev eventually uses.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.
