Kai's verdictS-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.
