RepoPrompt is an awesome tool.
The problem is that if you have multiple repos, even if you use Cursor/Windsurf, they have a hard time finding relevant files across big codebases.

This customer converted into a bigger tier after initially signing up for a smaller tier.

A big thing that helps our SaaS business offset churn is expansion revenue.
We offer tiered pricing to customers. And we offer auto-upgrades on a prorated basis.
As our customers grow, so do we. And because we focus on startups, there's always a lot of potential to grow.
