| Kai's verdict | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. | S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes. |
