| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Amazing when it works, frustrating when it doesn't. Runway still more reliable for pros. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for local inference. If you care about privacy or want to tinker, install this today. | S-tier for search. I use it before Google now. If you're still Googling everything, try this for a week. |
