It sounds too good to be true when your product is better than every competitor in every aspect. What are refine's weakest points?
Looked a bit more in detail it seems a few features like below are comparably deficient vs React Admin Enterprise:

1. Relationships management (particularly many to many) 2. Persistence of preferences like sort and filters 3. No builtin UI components to display audit logs

PS: i am not associated with them in anyway. Just looking for versatility in tools in this space.

Also XavaPro (java specific and server generated pages design) is much more feature rich

In my opinion, trying to handle routing is the weakest point. However, we are working on this. With refine v4 , we'll remove the router dependecies and you will be able to easily integrate refine to your existing app.
How do you plan to make money with it?
We got a similar question before. You can check it out here: https://github.com/refinedev/refine/discussions/3261
