Kai's verdictA-tier for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.S-tier for coding. If you write code of any kind, this pays back the $20 in a day.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick.
