Kai's verdictA-tier. Best for teaching a kid to code in 2026.S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.S-tier if you're on Mac. The fastest way to get AI answers without context-switching.
