Congrats to the Pitch Team. Looks like a beautiful product. I wonder if it’s really 10 times better than Google Slides, because that’s what it’s competing against. 2x or 3x better is not enough.

I'v added this paragraph to the article: the servers are oversized for the load we're currently seeing. The reason for that is that we tried to solve a production issue by increasing the server specs. It didn't solve the prob
