Apart from being easy to analyze, why is Python so interesting? It's a nice-to-play with language, very useful for researchers, but not practical for enterprise code. There are too many ways to do the same thing, not type safe, and I personally don't know many real python pros, the majority are just using python to play with.

Isn't your tech fragile? Feels like it'd break/provide false positives easily. Integration is also not easy, the matrix of possible tech stacks is big. It doesn't test new edge cases, so it's useful only for regression, which is important but if your testing hygiene is good, which means devs are writing tests, you wouldn't have the need for your product, am i wrong? Good luck either way. Seems like VCs are gambling at products that save costs.
