Kai's verdictS-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space.A-tier. Rising fast. If you can tolerate the UX, quality per dollar is best-in-class.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.
