Differentiation

Our angle
There is a massive gap between consumer web subscriptions (which are silently throttled and rate-limited) and enterprise API access (which is reliable but requires technical overhead to set up and build a UI for).

Real quotes from Reddit comments that inspired this opportunity

  • I’ve found that opus 4.6 is lobotomized during peak hours and fine off peak
  • Anthropic is throttling the model‘s thinking budget under load.
  • demand itself is making the models dumber
  • it was hilariously bad at following instructions compared to before.
  • Why would you think it failing on a simple question like this is acceptable if you're about to trust it to rewrite the logic in a 30k LOC project?
  • they are shit at telling us the truth
  • can they be trusted AT ALL at this point?
