Compared a few options

Evaluated this against two competitors. Where it wins: real-time result streaming and developer-friendly for building video AI products. Where it lags: limited usefulness outside video-centric use cases. On balance the feature set — especially real-time result streaming — justifies the 5 stars for our use case.

I've evaluated a lot of these over the years. What stands out here is real-time result streaming — handled better than most — and streams results in real time for responsive UX. Performance depends on underlying models and infrastructure is my one real gripe. Worth the time if this is your use case.
