Kai's verdictS-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.A-tier. Best free agentic option in VS Code. Use with Claude for best results.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Best of a boring category. Use it for first drafts, then edit in Keynote if high-stakes.
