Kai's verdictA-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.S-tier for model-shopping. I use this for every prototype before committing.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.A-tier. Genuinely different vibe from Suno — worth trying both for a month.
