When it fits — and when it doesn’t
A good fit for
Teams building server-rendered apps who need robust language model orchestration
Projects requiring complex integration of multiple AI services within a single application
Developers working on scalable solutions that demand advanced language processing capabilities
Look elsewhere if
Teams needing real-time streaming (batch-only architecture)
Budget-constrained projects where cost is the primary concern
