Great product and congratulations on the launch. Who is the target user vs customer? On the surface, and I may be wrong here, this feels like a LLM layered on top of a typical AutoML structure eg: TPOT, Caret. Is that the correct mental model for a tool like this? And if so, do you see a similar problem that these tools faced in broader adoption at companies?

I've always had the impression that Mathematical programming esp. Mixed integer programming/Integer programming is largely "unknown" outside of core engineering and operations research. It's an excellent framework to solve a whole host of problems that arise in business and elsewhere, which are solved using suboptimal (hah) heuristics instead.
Okay, maybe I was a bit harsh, but it definitely doesn't pop up as often as deep learning and statistical machine learning. For those who wish to get deeper into this, I highly recommend Optimization over Integers by Bertsimas and Weismantel.

If pygamelib interests you, you might also be interested in Pyxel:
+1 for Pyxel, recently used it for a couple of hours to create a tiny project [1] and loved how intuitive it was.

This was fun. I saw a post on Pyxel a couple of days ago, and decided to write mine in Python using it.
Is there such a tool for use with python? preferably matplotlib compatible. I often find myself needing to plot some data to get a quick idea of what it looks like, and my work is generally on a remote host. Having to open a new ssh session with X forwarding is not difficult but a more frictionless approach would be nice.
There are [1, 2], and AFAICT they rely on gnuplot [3].
