It's marketed to mac users, and given the GUI, to the sub-segment of mac users who don't use command line tools.

The same product can be sold to many different demographics through different channels.

From a cursory glance, I would say one thing is that there’s a GUI for it. Some people are afraid of opening a terminal.

Totally. I was thinking about designers when writing the interface and product page.

AFAICT:

+ GUI

- Cross platform support

- request inspection support

- non-http tunnel support(unclear, docs/faq is terrible)
