| Tagline | Kuaishou's video model. The surprise standout. | Replit's AI that builds + deploys full apps on their platform. | Microsoft/GitHub's autocomplete. Deep VS Code + JetBrains integration. | The one that actually gets text in images right. |

| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class. | A-tier. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art. |
