Kai's verdictB-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency.S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
