Curious, how are you keeping the product data up-to-date? We built something similar for price alerts on specific URLs, that we use all the time, but have to poll it daily to see the price change (https://lowlow.bot). I imagine that would be a lot of $$ for every product on the Internet.

I’m curious how any project management to code agent workflow can be successful given how messy the process is in real life.
Especially discovering unknown unknowns that lead to changes in your original requirements. This often happens at each step of the process (e.g. when writing the PRD, when breaking down the tickets, when coding, when QAing, and when documenting for users).
That’s when the agent needs to stop and ask for feedback. I haven’t seen (any) agents do this well yet.
blancotech commented on Cloudflare to introduce pay-per-crawl for AI bots blog.cloudflare.com/intro... · Posted by u/scotchmi_st
> An important mechanism here is that even if a crawler doesn’t have a billing relationship with Cloudflare, and thus couldn’t be charged for access, a publisher can still choose to ‘charge’ them. This is the functional equivalent of a network level block (an HTTP 403 Forbidden response where no content is returned) — but with the added benefit of telling the crawler there could be a relationship in the future.
IMO this is why this will not work. If you're too small a publisher, you don't want to lose potential click-through traffic. If you're a big publisher, you negotiate with the main bots that crawl a site (Perplexity, ChatGPT, Anthropic, Google, Grok).
The only way I can see something like this work is if a large "bot" providers set the standard and say they'll pay if this is set up (unlikely) or smaller apps that crawl see that this as cheaper than a proxy. But in the end, most of the traffic comes from a few large players.

Anyone else immediately think of delta airlines? I was excited to read an analysis of a seat-to-seat chat implementation

Nice idea but the results weren't comprehensive for the book I tested. I find that chatgpt with web search enabled does a better job with the simple prompt "Create a relationship diagram for the characters in <BOOK TITLE> using mermaidjs. Include the relationships between people."

The mention of Apple Notes search makes me frustrated haha! I’ve been dreaming of Apple integrating something like this one day. Looking forward to trying out your tool in the meantime.
What are the long-term plans given the likelihood of Apple having on-device LLMs and integrating them throughout their tools in 202X?

Hi, great landing page! The example makes it very clear what you're solving for.
How are you thinking about staying differentiated if LinkedIn were to add this feature?
Also, given that most LLM chat tools are free now (e.g. http://chatgpt.com), how are you thinking about long term differentiation and pricing?
