Kai's verdictA-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.S-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.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.
