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.B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic.S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.
