It would be really nice to try it first -- even if only on one or two queries -- before purchasing. I will never "book a demo" because that sort of appointment tends to be pushy, awkward, and something of a burden.

Also: The "10 spots left" thing seems disingenuous and desperate. This is meme-tier artificial scarcity.

So I would be interested, but not the way it's currently set up.
