Reviewer scorecard
“Real-time reactivity without WebSocket boilerplate. Server functions co-located with schema definition is elegant.”
“The AI command generation is useful for complex one-liners I'd normally Google. The modern UI is controversial but the speed is undeniable — fastest terminal I've used.”
“The DX is genuinely excellent. If your app needs real-time, Convex eliminates an enormous amount of complexity.”
“A fancy terminal is still a terminal. The AI features save a few Google searches but $18/mo for a terminal feels steep when iTerm2 is free.”
“Reactive backends that push data to clients will become the default. Convex is building that future now.”
“The terminal hasn't changed in 40 years. Warp is betting that AI makes the command line accessible to a new generation. Bold and necessary.”
