Kai's verdictS-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today.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.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.
