Really good — a few things to improve
Recommended for anyone in my field. The onboarding flow was smooth and I was productive from day one. The recent updates have addressed most of my initial concerns. It handles edge cases better than anything else I've tried. My only complaint is the pricing could be more competitive. My team is very happy with the results.

Solid product, recommended
Strong product with room to grow. Performance is fast — no noticeable latency even on large inputs. The accuracy has improved significantly with recent model updates. A few missing integrations I'd like to see added. Keep up the great work, team.
