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 for social/casual. B-tier for serious work. Good entry point.B-tier standalone, A-tier value if you already pay ChatGPT. Don't pay for it separately.
