Competent marketing, if nothing else.

Warp's landing page:

- Product Hunt #1 Product of the Day

- The terminal for the 21st century

- Warp is a blazingly fast, rust-based terminal reimagined from the ground up to work like a modern app.

- All cloud features are opt-in. Data is encrypted at rest.

- Fully native, Rust-based terminal. No Electron or web-tech.

Fig's landing page:

- Fig adds IDE-style autocomplete to your existing terminal.

- Works with your existing terminal & shell

- Supports 300+ of your favorite CLI tools

- Autocomplete for cd, git, docker, npm, yarn, kubectl, brew, aws and hundreds more!

Regarding Warp's:

> All cloud features are opt-in. Data is encrypted at rest.

The most generous interpretation is this is misleading (I would consider it outright lie) given they currently also have telemetry which isn't even opt-out, it's always on. See last time this was discussed:

Warp is full terminal with focus on collaboration features.

Fig can be used with your existing terminals like iTerm, terminal or VSCode

It seems like it’s intended to be complimentary, and it runs in warp.
