The value is in the explore commands (schema, find, stats) that jq simply doesn't have. and the way agents can interact with this cli which should save you/them 10 minutes of guessing on a file you've never seen.

The TLDR is your original photos are immediately deleted after the AI model is trained. You can also ask for deletion of all data from within the app.

From the first day I started working on avtrs.ai I wanted to make it easier, cheaper, and better. It felt impossible at times but I was able to get better results than others, with less photos (only 4) and for free. So why wait, get them now :)
