    The landing page looks lovely, but the examples shown have no foundation in my head for what they're doing / showing / helping with.

    It's confusing enough that I don't know if this is just way above my knowledge level or whether I just don't understand what it even is.

    It feels like you've developed something really useful but it's so internally obvious in your own head that it's missing some steps in the explanation for everyone else on how to come along with you and see the power of it.

      Yeah, I don’t really see the point of it just glancing at the website. In fact, that little stack of activity notifications at the bottom seem quite obstructive and unintuitive, not sure if it’s part of the product but as a UI element it looks… off.

        (It's not part of the free version since that works with your existing agent and you interact with it however you normally would).

        The message stack in the bottom are the agent replies as it works. The idea is to move away from an array of messages as the primary interface with an agent and instead make the tools the primary interface. Whether that's actually helpful is an open question but it's certainly how I prefer to work now that I've been building with it.

          I see, that makes sense. Though I personally think the UI could use a little bit of a touch up.
