Okay product, not amazing
Has potential, but needs polish. It integrates well with VS Code / Slack / Notion — my daily drivers. It integrates well with VS Code / Slack / Notion — my daily drivers. The UI takes some getting used to.

A must-have for any professional
Best-in-class, period. The accuracy has improved significantly with recent model updates. The interface is intuitive enough that I didn't need to read any docs. The AI doesn't just suggest — it learns from my preferences over time.

Expected better
Disappointed with the experience. It handles edge cases better than anything else I've tried. The recent updates have addressed most of my initial concerns. The mobile experience could use some work.

Mixed experience overall
Decent tool, not without issues. Pricing is fair for the value you get. Integration with my existing tools was seamless — no friction at all. The learning curve was steeper than expected.

Does the job well
Mostly great, minor complaints. The AI suggestions are incredibly accurate and save me hours every week. The free tier is genuinely generous compared to competitors. Wish the free tier had slightly higher limits. A staple in my tech stack now.
