| Best for | People who want to hand off tasks entirely — trip planning, research, spreadsheet building. | Teams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs. | Anyone running autonomous AI agents (shopping bots, booking assistants, personal AI) who wants delegated payment capability without handing over raw card data. | Photographers animating stills, cinematic b-roll. |

| Kai's verdict | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | Stripe Link is the most credible first move toward a real agentic payment layer — the one-time-use card model is genuinely clever, and the existing merchant network gives it a head start no startup wallet can match. But the 'approve every transaction' UX will get old fast, and the hard part (autonomous spending with guardrails) is still on the roadmap. (Verdict pending Phi's full review.) | A-tier. Best for cinematic image-to-video. Pair with Runway for coverage. |
