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.B-tier. Solid product but crowded market. Try it if Notion AI feels too generic.S-tier inside Photoshop (Generative Fill). B-tier standalone.
