| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier all-rounder. If you want one tool that does everything okay-to-great, this is it. | A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python. |
