Kai's verdictS-tier. If you're on Vercel/shadcn, this is cheating.B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic.S-tier for academic research. Nothing else comes close for systematic reviews.S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement.
