Key Features		• Multi-model AI support including OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and local models • Native IDE extensions for VS Code and JetBrains with smooth workflow integration • MCP server connectivity for development toolchain integration

✓Genuinely removes the tedious first 60% of markup from a design reference
✓Self-hostable with your own API keys if you already pay for Claude or GPT
✓Stack-agnostic across HTML/Tailwind, React, Vue, Svelte, Ionic and React Native
✓Live preview with natural-language edits beats the round-trip of generate-then-paste

✗Output still needs accessibility, semantics and responsive review before shipping
✗Complex stateful components rarely come back ready — it's scaffolding, not a senior engineer
✗Hosted plan bills against model usage so heavy usage can outrun the subscription value

✓Open-source under Apache 2.0 — no vendor lock-in or proprietary protocols
✓Genuinely supports JetBrains as a first-class citizen, not an afterthought
✓YAML config and Continue Hub make team-wide standardization trivial
✓Transparent pricing: $3/M tokens Starter, $20/seat/month Team — no hidden seat costs
✓Mix local and hosted models in one extension — cheap autocomplete, expensive chat
✓Strong on-prem story for regulated enterprises (BYOK, internal proxies, no telemetry)

✗Less polished UX than closed-source competitors like Cursor or GitHub Copilot
✗Agent mode is younger than Cline's and has fewer guardrails
✗Hub assistants quality varies — vetting community configs takes effort
✗$3/M tokens Starter is competitive but not the cheapest if you BYO API keys directly
