| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. | S-tier if you live in the terminal. Different shape than Cursor — complementary, not replacement. | S-tier for ad-hoc analysis. Makes you feel like a data scientist in 30 seconds. | S-tier in its category. The first AI music tool I'd actually listen to. |
