Community Feedback
Strengths
- Genuinely autonomous — runs in its own isolated VM rather than just assisting inline
- Price dropped 96% from the original $500/mo launch price to a $20/mo entry tier
- Adaptive router picks strong third-party models (Claude, GPT, Gemini) automatically
- Now has a usable free tier, unlike its 2024 launch
Weaknesses
- In-house SWE model trails frontier models on benchmarks (SWE-bench Verified ~45.8% at 2.0 launch)
- Proprietary; Enterprise VPC deployment still cloud-managed, not true self-hosting
- ACU-based billing can be hard to predict for heavy usage
- Team pricing restructured multiple times since 2024, causing confusion
