| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class. | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026. |
