Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

Revolutionary approach to prompt engineering. Optimizers find better prompts than humans can write manually.

80/100 · ship

Fastest way to prototype with Gemini. Free API keys, multimodal testing, and direct prompt engineering — all in browser.

Skeptic
45/100 · skip

Steep learning curve and the abstractions can be confusing. For most apps, good prompt engineering is faster.

80/100 · ship

The free tier is absurdly generous. Perfect for experimentation even if you deploy with a different provider.

Futurist
80/100 · ship

The idea that prompts should be compiled, not handwritten, is correct. DSPy is ahead of its time.
