Love these types of 'hacks' :)

We did something like this at my workplace, but it was vibes to automate common tasks

promptlayer is great. Highly recommend for prompt versioning, play grounding, etc.

“Start for free” and no “pricing” available. Am I missing it, or what’s the monetization strategy here?

Do you have any screen recordings of Windsurf in action?

no, working on private projects mostly, but there should be plenty on Youtube.

They nailed agentic part and costs of indexing/searching/chunking large repositories. This thing searches 2000+ files in like few seconds and as I understand it's really hard to hit the limits of Pro version.

And I'm so impressed how attentive it is to the process - like searching for examples of code usage in other files, or double checking itself. Once I told it that code doesn't produce the right result, and it checked everything and then concluded that it's most likely my judgement mistake and asked to open DevTools and copy request payload, so it can verify my claim :) (and it was right – was my mistake).

Cursor is a toy compared to this.

"Cursor is a toy compared to this." Now I am intrigued even more... happy Holidays.

Yes, if you are doing your due diligence to learn about the individual and finding the right channel to contact them, your odds of response increase.

Wow. This is relevant to me as I am choosing a big company versus a backed pre-seed company with 4-5% at a $5M valuation.

If someone could offer the time to walk me through the liquidity scenarios, it would be much appreciated.

I’ve been thinking about this too. Weights and Biases has a platform. Braintrust Data— https://www.braintrustdata.com/ — does this as a platform too. I’ve played around with it a bunch!
