| Kai's verdict | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. | A-tier. The right answer if you want open-source + terminal-native + model-agnostic. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for builders. The right primitives. What Kai is built on under the hood. |
