Q: Growth and Straico
Understand not your first launch. Very interested, own similar apps but have room.
Company situation: How is your app growth doing so far and revenue sustainability? Bootstrapping all the way?
Any plans for adding straico API byok? Many of us own straico as api alternative, would be great incentive to buy

Apr 23, 2025A: Hey Jeremy,
we are fully bootstrapped and have a very healthy customer base, so there is no risk of us not being there anymore in a couple of years.
In terms of adding additional API key, this is something we might consider in the future but most likely will be around Open Router. The main challenge is to ensure content quality and context length around different models to not have errors when creating content. We also have optimized our prompts for the models we use. Hence, the quality might be lower once you start using a different LLM for instance.
All that said, straico will probably not be added in the near future but OpenRouter probably will.
Regards,
Laurin
