Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier in its niche. The only one that actually gets emotion right.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.
