| Kai's verdict | S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. The Deep Research feature is genuinely useful. Don't sleep on it if you're already paying Google. | A-tier for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point. |
