| Kai's verdict | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. | A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier for real-time. B-tier for everything else. Worth checking when news breaks. |
