Congrats. Do you guys use AllenNLP, by any chance?

We've looked into it! So far we've chosen to integrate with spaCy. Can I ask what you like about AllenNLP?

Cool project, what would be cooler is if you had an API to retrieve the labels for a given word. May be that's in the works?

Done and shipped! :D One of our extensions allows you to plug in an API - either use your own model, or an integration with an open-source project like spaCy to apply labels.

Any plans to support image annotation (something similar to what CVAT does)?

Great idea - and this is an odd comment: I think you're pricing it too low relative to the number of people in the market. Just my gut - could well be wrong, wrong, and wrong again.

I've got a question, a lot of startup websites have a similar look to this one. It's a look I actually really like. What technologies are they all using? How would I build a site like this?

wappalyzer doesn't give me anything and I don't have a ton of webdev experience.

So here's the secret. Our awesome designer actually put a lot of hard work into putting this together. 1 week later a friend told me about https://www.landen.co/ and I wish I had used this to save us some time (don't know the team, just a fan of the product).

Music to my ears! I think (and hope) you're probably right - so let's consider this an introductory launch price and assume it'll go up over time ;)

This is very cool! I especially love the logo. Congrats on the launch and best of luck.

Always happy to hear people complimenting the logo. I've been told it's not professional enough, but I really wanted our site to have some personality. Thanks!
