Great catch, and thank you for pointing this out. That wasn't a deliberate choice but a bug in our front end. We've just pushed a fix for it. The showcase examples should be visible to everyone now without an account.

Wow. Thank you for such a thoughtful, detailed, and genuinely helpful comment. Honestly, after a day of fielding a lot of (justified) criticism, reading something so constructive and encouraging is incredibly moving for our team. We're

This is an excellent idea, thank you so much for suggesting it. You're right, parsing lecture videos and PDFs to extract diagrams would be a powerful feature. We've officially added it to our backlog. We're excited about this

We're very sorry that our actions came across as deceiving. That was never our goal, but we understand that the impact is more important than the intent. To be transparent, we were struggling to manage the high costs of the AI models a

That’s a terrible first impression, and we are sincerely sorry. Failing to gratify your intellectual curiosity is the worst possible outcome for us. You were right to flag it. The onboarding flow was broken, and we've since fixed it ba

That's a very fair question. You're right—our initial approach wasn't balanced. We're still a new team and have been learning in public as we try to find the right model. We believe we've found a better, more reason

That is a terrible experience, and we are sincerely sorry. You are completely right—having you sign up only to immediately hit a paywall is unacceptable, and we deeply apologize for wasting your time. Your feedback highlighted a major flaw

That's a sharp but insightful comment. We're sorry that our initial design gave you that impression. Our intention was never to ignore "manners" for utility, but we see now how a forced sign-up does exactly that. We made

Point taken. We apologize for the initial friction. We've listened to the feedback and have now added a no-login trial. If you're still interested, we'd love for you to give it a try.

That's a fair question, but our goal is the exact opposite. We want as many users as possible to try the service. The challenge was that the costs associated with the initial free trials went beyond what our team could sustain. The rec

You are absolutely right, and thank you for the direct feedback. Forcing a sign-up before demonstrating value is a poor experience, and we're sorry. It’s clear we got this part wrong initially. It was feedback exactly like yours that p

That is a completely fair criticism, and I am truly sorry. There's no good excuse for asking for personal information before demonstrating any value—it's disrespectful to your time. We've learned from this and have now change

You are absolutely right, and we're sorry for the frustrating experience. Forcing a sign-up before you can even try the tool is poor form, and we apologize for wasting your time. As a new team, we're still learning, and this was a

I really appreciate you calling this out, and I'm genuinely sorry for the bad experience. The wording was misleading, and we should have been much clearer. To be transparent, when we started, the AI model costs quickly became unsustain

You're absolutely right, PDFs can be incredibly tricky. That lack of a consistent, easily parsable structure for arbitrary data is the core challenge.

Appreciate you sharing that requirement! The need for batch processing to pull out targeted data points from PDFs (rather than converting the whole document) is a valuable insight. While the current tool focuses on full conversion to Markdo
