This is awesome!

Full Disclosure: I'm a YC W21 founder that's built authzed, which is effectively Zanzibar as a Service, but anything that gets mindshare towards using ACL services is huge.

How close do ya'll plan to follow the paper? At a glance, I noticed a few of differences.

It'd be amazing if we had API compatibility across our products.

We tried to follow as close as possible, but left out all optimizations and cluster inter-node messaging for now. The data structures and APIs are followed 1:1. In some places it was hard to follow the paper as they leave out important details, but you probably experienced that as well ;)

Your APIs look quite compatible, as you probably also stayed very close to the paper.
