Too bad there's no details on the "modern" features vs Object Pascal. Or are they hidden?
Anyway, seems interesting. I gather that their business model is to find large institutional customers looking for a way to scale out their legacy code (Delphi, etc.) to new platforms?
I wonder where they find developers willing to learn their tools when the entry price to learn is non-free. Also, a closed ecosystem nowadays means depriving the devs of the rich ecosystems that have grown around open languages. Which can be a good thing... (looking at npm, ahem)

Given that it doesn't support vcl I don't see a reason to ever move to it for existing delphi applications which I assume are mostly fat clients.
