Kai's verdictS-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.
