1-Click Prefilled Execution: Starts immediately with realistic defaults (Show HN, Claude Code, MCP server) so you can verify output quality in <10 seconds.
Flat, Enriched Dataset Rows: Every record is pushed as an individual flat JSON row ready for Google Sheets, Clay, n8n, Make, or webhook pipelines.
Transparent Pay-Per-Event Pricing: No monthly subscription lock-in.
