Kai's verdictA-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.
