Kiro’s main advantage is Amazon is paying for my LLM usage instead of me.

For the most part it’s unlimited right now. Vs Code’s Copilot Agent mode is basically the same thing , tell it to write a list of tasks , but I have to pay for it.

I’m much happier with both of these options, both are much cheaper than Claude Code.

IMO the real race is to get LLM cost down. Someone smarter than me is going to figure out how to run a top LLM model for next to nothing.

This person will be a billionaire. Nvidia and AMD are probably already working on it. I want Deepseek running on a 100$ computer that uses a nominal amount of power.
