What’s the difference between all of the other query optimization startups? Bluesky, etc.

We have better tech. For our customers, this translates directly into more savings.

We also have less setup and overhead than most of the other companies in the space. many of them come in with recommendations for system changes that you need to implement, and which they then charge you for; we take about ten minutes to set up and then generate savings automatically.

In the long run we plan to optimize source code (e.g. C++).
