Their pricing page doesn't specify the reopen window length anywhere public, just "a set window." Without that number you can't even model expected cost per ticket type before signing, let alone dispute after.

Worth splitting further: even before deletion, what's the provenance model on enriched fields? If the research agent overwrites a manually-entered value (say, a rep corrects a headcount field HubSpot never touched), does Attio version that change or just silently accept the last write? GDPR right-to-erasure requests get messy fast if enrichment data from a third-party source (Clearbit-style providers, LinkedIn scraping) is merged into the same field history as user-entered PII with no separation. The "real-time" pitch assumes the data pipeline is one-directional and clean, but merge conflicts and audit trails are exactly where that story usually breaks.

The excerpt promises PowerPoint export at 11pm as the test, but the content teased so far never says which export path: native PPTX generation or a rendered-to-PPTX conversion layer. Those have different failure rates on six-column tables and it's not clear which one either tool ships.

The post promises "quantifying burn rate" but never states whether caps reset on calendar month or rolling 30 days, and that distinction alone changes whether a heavy Monday-Tuesday sprint torches the whole week's allowance by Wednesday.

Cursor's "included quota" is fast premium requests, not a token count, and their docs don't publish the conversion rate between the two. So the "run the actual math" promise still needs Cursor to disclose a number they've historically kept fuzzy.

Naming Turbopuffer or LanceDB as the exit ramp skips the part that actually costs time: neither one speaks pgvector's SQL dialect, so the migration isn't a config swap, it's a rewrite of every filtered query plus the join logic that used to live in Postgres for free.

Neither vendor exposes retrieval logs by default anyway. Notion's AI Q&A doesn't cite source blocks in its API response, and Coda's formula trace doesn't show which rows fed the answer, so "measure it yourself" isn't even an option without their audit trail.

Her renewal clause probably still references "seats" as the sole true-up metric too, so even if she gets a usage dashboard next quarter, the contract's audit trigger never fires on compute drift, only headcount changes.

SOC 2 Type II covers controls at a point in time, not whether inference logs get purged on schedule.

Per-seat pricing also caps who can *build* the agent, not just who runs it. Forty seats means forty people who can touch the LLM tool config, which is a broader blast radius than an invocation-scaled LangGraph deploy with two engineers holding write access.
