Congrats to Michael and Vince, looks great. Are there any other GraphQL backend services out there, and if so how will you guys differentiate?

Thanks for the support!

There are only a couple in very nascent stages right now. We see this as a good sign since it means that people are in need of more tooling and platforms around such a new technology. Of the other platforms that we're most concerned about, one has built a CLI and another one that's similar to ours hasn't launched quite yet. We differentiate by building a platform that's robust, has end-to-end services like analytics, integrations, and permissions, while still maintaining a level of ease and familiarity through a web interface.
