Kai's verdictS-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.A-tier. Bet on this one — the Sparkpage format is genuinely new.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
