Kai's verdictS-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier for data teams. S-tier if you already live in SQL + Python.
