Really good — a few things to improve
Genuinely useful — glad I tried it. I've tried 5 similar tools and this one is clearly the best in class. My only complaint is the pricing could be more competitive. Best tool in this category, hands down.

Not worth it for me
Not what I expected. The interface is intuitive enough that I didn't need to read any docs. Integration with my existing tools was seamless — no friction at all. The mobile experience could use some work.

Great tool, minor quibbles
Really solid tool overall. Performance is fast — no noticeable latency even on large inputs. Pricing is fair for the value you get. Wish the free tier had slightly higher limits.
