Reviewer scorecard
“Serverless-specific observability that understood Lambda, Workers, and Vercel. Now part of Cloudflare's platform.”
“The most mature AI developer platform. Assistants API, function calling, and the Playground are all well-designed. Documentation is extensive.”
“The acquisition validates the approach. Serverless needs purpose-built observability, not adapted APM tools.”
“Reliability has improved dramatically. The rate limits are generous on paid tiers. The Assistants API is finally stable enough for production.”
“Observability built into the platform (Cloudflare, Vercel) rather than bolted on is the right direction.”
“OpenAI has the largest ecosystem of developers and integrations. Even if other models catch up, the platform moat is real.”
