> Demo is broken

This is a deal breaker for me at least; if a service can't handle a predicted load from HN and friends, it's not trustworthy.

It's like buying a car: if I can't start it before a test-drive, I would never buy it.

I hear you, we're fixing it right now.

It also prompts to make an account (and won't respond to the demo submit request) after what, 3 tries on the demo? This not really enough to determine whether it has the horsepower to do anything significant. Requiring signup to do even basic exploration of capability turns me away.

I don't think you understand.

As long as this is an SaaS, it's useless; no one should depend on a third-party provider to create VIEWs for them. "Oh, we can't deliver tax reports to the government because AskEdith is down" doesn't work as an excuse, at least not here in Norway.
