| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Great price/performance. Go here if ElevenLabs is too expensive. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. |
