Kai's verdictA-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.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.B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.
