Reviewer scorecard
“Automatic HTTPS and the Caddyfile syntax make web server config trivial. Reverse proxy setup is one line.”
“The most mature AI developer platform. Assistants API, function calling, and the Playground are all well-designed. Documentation is extensive.”
“Automatic HTTPS alone justifies switching from Nginx. The Caddyfile is infinitely more readable than nginx.conf.”
“Reliability has improved dramatically. The rate limits are generous on paid tiers. The Assistants API is finally stable enough for production.”
“Caddy proves that web servers can be simple. Automatic HTTPS should have always been the default.”
“OpenAI has the largest ecosystem of developers and integrations. Even if other models catch up, the platform moat is real.”
