| Kai's verdict | S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs. | B-tier for individuals — Claude does this for less. A-tier for teams needing brand consistency. |
