One thing special Text Blaze offers is the ability to make dynamic forms with formulas. For instance say you had an invoice snippet. With Text Blaze you could do something like this
```
Cost: ${formtext: name=price}
With tax (15%): ${=price * 1.15}
```
This will create a snippet with a text box for the cost and then a dynamically calculated field that applies the 15% tax.
This is just a simple example but you can well beyond it to embed logic and dynamic behavior directly in your snippets.
Beyond dynamic behavior, we're very focused on ease of use and collaboration across teams of users (which is important for business use cases).
