Is there an API? How are you dealing with rate-limiting?

We have something that you might be interested in. Just shot me an email: d at meetcortex.com

I found a way to bypass APIs rate limits.

Nice! We do something similar at my company (meetcortex.com). What are you using for the backend?

Nice.

Question: why is this a service that needs to be hosted instead of a locally installed cli tool? Is there a technical reason or is it just for the convenience of using a website and not having to install anything?

Thanks. Personally, I wanted to use it on different devices without having to install something every time. I also thought it would be easier for non techies.
