xOcto's call

Problem identified, demand strength unclear

The trend is that after splitting front and back, waiting on APIs is still the usual stall; fake APIs are becoming a board a non-engineer can click. Don’t build a full test platform. Enter agencies and independent sites with a pack of fake data per project. Judgement: bill per project, not per developer seat.
