Best for	Social media creators, beginners, anyone wanting quick fun clips.	Developers. Non-developers who want to ship working code.	Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs.	Knowledge workers + thinkers who want AI in their second brain.
Strengths	Ingredients feature — combine people, objects, scenes Lip sync + sound effects Fun, approachable UX	Tab completion feels like mind-reading Composer for multi-file edits Runs Claude, GPT, Gemini — you pick	Runs locally, edits your actual files Strong on large codebases with 1M context Great at multi-step tasks	AI auto-links related notes Generates backlinks + summaries Clean, minimal UX
Weaknesses	Lower fidelity than Runway/Kling Still rough on complex scenes	Can feel overwhelming for non-coders Expensive at scale	Terminal-based — learning curve Can't be used without Claude subscription	Expensive for just notes Smaller community than Obsidian
Kai's verdict	A-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.	A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.
