Kai's verdictB-tier. Granola is better UX but Otter works everywhere. Pick based on your platform.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic.
