| 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 fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time. | S-tier in the agent category. The first one I'd give to a non-technical friend. |
