Ok, I don't get what exactly does this offer.
Initially I thought that this is another API aggregator, with "AI" twist. You create a website that uses "Light Auth" to log in (so like Auth0), stores data in "Light Table" (so like Firebase), and uses AirTable integration to send it out.
But then I saw the pricing -- $0.50 per request, 100 requests/month -- and I am not sure anymore. Obviously no one is going to pay $0.50 to handle user login, or to do a database query, or to post some data to Airtable. So this startup is not a service provider... but then what is it?
And then I noticed there are "Light Code" to generate code, and "Light Backspace" to fix syntax errors... and "Light Table" mentions "Generates tables and queries"...
So maybe Light AI thing generates the code, like a Github CoPilot -- and then you are paying $0.50 for each database query that their service writes for you? In this case it is pretty expensive, but at least somewhat makes sense... but then where is the list of supported technologies? Does generated code support Firebase? Postgres? DynamoDB? Something else?
And then I've noticed there are no actual docs of that API, and the list of "500 integration" is hosted on by Notion and contains only 6 website names. And numerous spelling errors.
I am going to guess the company actually has no working product and has no finished designs for the product either -- just a vague idea of "AWS for low-code with AI". Not sure why they would do the launch in this state, they just come off unprofessional and uninteresting.
