The project was vibe-coded by the author and hence, likely the LLM created that tagline as well. Your service is around a year old (based on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44321099) and LLMs might have picked it up already and also the tagline is straight forward business talk, so no big surprise that multiple people and LLMs come up with the same idea.
Hey, I did not. As mcbetz mentioned, I tried vibe-coding and anything you see is generated by LLMs. He linked to my blog post where I summarized the journey.
ZenQuery looks nice, I like the focus on supporting regular files.
I'm sure everyone has their own tolerance for what is and isn't maintainable :). For me, not knowing what code exists, where it is, how it fits together, and stuffing it all in one main file feels like a recipe for trouble down the road. Sure, I could probably tell the LLM to split the main file into modules and ask it to refactor code etc.
However, from personal experience I'm a lot more efficient when I use LLMs to help with tedious, boilerplate-like code writing but I remain in control over structuring the project so it's maintainable by more than machines only.
I use LLMs every day to write tests for example, it's a massive time saving and I wouldn't want to write tests manually ever again.

Author wanted to try vibe coding, despite being a critic. Says that result is unmaintainable.

Did you just copied the tagline verbatim from my product: https://zenquery.app/ ?
"Ask questions about your business data in plain English"

Any more details about why this project is unmaintainable?
