| Kai's verdict | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for price/performance. A-tier for consumer use. If you build apps, this is the budget pick. | S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down. |
