I've no idea what their architecture/implementation looks like, but I've built a similar tool for my own use and the improvements are dramatic to say the least.

It's amazing that you can do this on your own but the company in question cannot although they have raised $6M. If your README were their entire pitch and website and, it would be 100000x more convincing.
YC these days is just a fast track for rich kids to raise millions with nothing but a landing page.
Vaporware.
looks cool, what's the largest codebase you have tested it on?
OpenEmr and Istio. https://gitlab.com/rhobimd-oss/shebe/-/blob/main/docs/Perfor...
