Kai's verdictA-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form.A-tier. Niche but beloved. If you've outgrown Notion, try this.
