| Best for | Designers, brand teams, anyone needing vector output or tight style control. | Teams with GitHub already. Devs who don't want to change IDEs. | Essays, long-form drafts, thinking on the page. | Developers who want an agent, not autocomplete. Large refactors, tests, docs. |

| Kai's verdict | S-tier for designers. The only one that takes vectors seriously. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. |
