| Kai's verdict | S-tier for conversation. A-tier for TTS. Complement to ElevenLabs, not replacement. | A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. |
