| Kai's verdict | A-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here. | A-tier. Beautiful UX. The writing app I'd pick if I only wrote long-form. | A-tier. If you already love Duolingo, worth it. If starting fresh, try ChatGPT Voice instead. | B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't. |
