I’m very confused as to what this actually is. Not sure if OP is affiliated with the linked site or not, but it would be useful to have some documentation that explains: (1) the problem statement, (2) how this product solves the stated problem better than other solutions.

Basically why should someone click the “Get started” button.

Far too many engineers think creating a startup is about writing code. Writing the code is the easy part. Communicating why someone else should care about the code or the product is the hard part.
But it's fully buzzword compatible!

"Enjoy a collaborative editing experience, while taking advantage of true serverless scalability, strong consistency, ACID-compliance, sharding, and other database properties."

"Programmatically interacting with records on RONIN is made possible through its unique query syntax, designed to allow for accessing data in the most “humane” way possible, as it closely mimics the English language."

Here's the syntax:

    get.blogPosts = {
        'where.author.handle.is': 'elaine',
        'where.ronin.createdAt.isLessThan': new Date(),
        including: ['author']
    };
This is SQL made hard.
Ugh. Yeah "unique query syntax" is not a feature.

I suspect this whole thing may be GPT generated buzzword bullshit.
