Kai's verdictA-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.A-tier for the right use case. Not for solo devs. If you manage engineers, try one license.A-tier. The most interesting spreadsheet in years. Great for ops dashboards.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
