Doesn't mention a cost or trial period in your post or the website

After installing it, it doesn't even let you see the first thing without signing up for a trial period and even then doesn't mention a cost.

I understand you just launched it, but I look at the free trial and think "what else am I going to find out...", uninstalled for now but hope you find traction.

Agreed this is a poor experience, we're making pricing very transparent now. Hope you give CodeViz another chance. Were you able to generate the top level architecture or interact with the call graph? If you couldn't use CodeViz, or saw the subscription modal immediately after opening the extension, this is a bug that I'll look into

Yep I did see some kind of top level graph, with a few items in it (maybe 5?), but that wasn't very useful. It was also quite small as it was in the left panel of vscode, so nothing of value at that point. This was with a pretty vanilla react/typescript codebase.

Maybe I was supposed to single click one to find out more? I double clicked for what it's worth, and got the message to upgrade. But given that it hadn't done anything useful yet I of course had no reason to proceed. Just early feedback, I'm sure you'll get it all worked out.
