| Kai's verdict | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | B-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency. | A-tier for non-native English speakers. B-tier if your English is already strong — Claude does better with tone. |
