Such a good idea. There are a number of things we do manually that we might be able to outsource. I'll follow up with you, @alexandrw and @lucy_guo, but QQ: previously you were working on a completely different idea. Why pivot and how'd you come up with this?

@rrhoover @lucy_guo Thanks Ryan! We came up this idea because we *really* wish something like this existed while we were building our last product. We were banging our heads against how to scale our old product (which relied a lot on manually booking appointments with doctors), and we knew we would've loved an API like Scale. It actually started as an API to power chatbots to something much more general (and we think more useful).
In terms of why pivoting, we got really excited about this idea and wanted to run with it for a little and then deciding what to do. We only starting working on this a little over a week ago, but it really hit the ground running in terms of the amount of interest we got from other companies and developers.
