Hi and congrats on the launch! I run a company that also does software diagrams and we've often been posed the question of generating automated diagrams. We've never done so, primarily because I've never found auto-generated diagrams helpful yet. Code dependency graphs have existed for a generation now and I've just never seen one referenced by anyone. I wonder if things have changed now with LLMs.
The examples in your youtube video look good. I'm curious how they're generated. "We were surprised to find that a small fraction of code can generate a very accurate representation of the system." is a surprising statement to me. It's not been my experience that the code can reveal an accurate representation of human-understandable architecture beyond the call graph. The backend system generated from OpenHands (in your video) also looks pretty different from their own architecture diagram in their README: https://github.com/All-Hands-AI/OpenHands/tree/main/openhand... . How do you reconcile what an LLM says an architecture looks like with what maintainers prescribe? Is there a way to give feedback to it? (similar to pthangeda's comment on customization)
I wish there was a way to point this at a repo to test its efficacy. Though I understand that that'd be prohibitively expensive to do for free on the landing page.

I'm also curious how you guys distinguish yourself from https://docs.codesee.io/docs/review-maps-for-visual-studio-c... . They tried this for a few years but shut down recently (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/shaneak_update-codesee-has-be...)
