| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. | S-tier for kids learning. The tutoring UX is legit — not a generic chatbot dressed up. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. | S-tier for solo + free. The best free option, hands down. |
