| Kai's verdict | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. | S-tier for kids learning. The tutoring UX is legit — not a generic chatbot dressed up. |
