I love this point. It's also one of the hardest things to do as a product person if you're not the typical user.

It's hard to feel the feelings of many types of users.

I don't really understand the appeal of these delivery services.

Whenever I try them my food usually arrives cold and more than once has apparently gotten stolen and then I have to spend a bunch of time with delivery people messaging me saying the food is not there, and then have to talk to customer service to get a refund.

On top of that they practically double the cost of the already expensive food it seems to me.

Rainy / cold days, busy families, and being able to access a greater variety of food in urban areas. These are scenarios with a high degree of pain that have not yet been solved by modern urban or surburban lives.

I created an OSS ai coding platform as well: https://brokk.ai

But it's a different take, Brokk is built to let humans supervise AI more effectively rather than optimizing for humans reading and writing code by hand. So it's not a VS Code fork, it's not really an IDE in the traditional sense at all.

Watched your Youtube. I love this - will try it out and give it to our team. This is effectively the "full mode" version of the mode I currently use Cursor for.

Curious how this is going to affect Cursor - I'm assuming it'll just be a drop-in replacement and we can expect Cursor to get the same speed-up as VSCode.

What about a pdf with many separate datapoints on it?

For instance, I have 100 pdfs, each with 10-100 individual products listed (in different formats).

I want to create a single table with one row per product appearing in any of the PDFs, with various details like price, product description, etc.,

From what I can tell from the demo, it seems like 1 file = 1 row in Trellis?

Just did an extraction and table mode targets this rly well :)

Congrats on launching! Wish we had this years ago at Flexport for our ops / science teams. Traditional ML approaches are expensive, and the idea of defining your final shape of data and automating the ETL process is the best abstraction out there.

Rooting for you guys!

Curious what folks in marketing think here. The intuition makes sense, but the marketing teams see the leading indicators.
