Kai's verdictA-tier. Close second to Cursor. If $5/mo matters, start here.S-tier for fiction. If you're writing a novel, this beats raw ChatGPT every time.S-tier for text-in-image. Use this for posters, Midjourney for art.B-tier. Solid for autocomplete but the category moved past it. Pick Cursor unless you can't.
