Like all of these startups in this space there never is a comparison of output being made between them and the ($$) competition. I realize they are doing some segmentation in the workflow but imo the valuable part is the actual document text and table extraction piece. Textract in its cheapest and simplest form is cheaper than this service. Turning on tables Textract is more expensive but I would be curious if Textract is doing a better job.

what you want is work in itself.. who pays the reviewer? How do you discover the reviewer? secondly, why must there be one "winner" .. maybe there are niches, local markets, business groups.. they want something and someone provides it.

Huh? This is a company selling a product/service. I am saying they have done no job to compare themselves to the competition beyond saying they are expensive and I am arguing that the competition is not much more expensive and might offer superior quality.
