| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Great price/performance. Go here if ElevenLabs is too expensive. | B-tier. Still early. Manus is more flexible for less money. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for content creators. Cuts editing time in half. Non-obvious but life-changing. |
