> Spinal is a new way to understand a codebase, how it's evolved, and the live changes streaming into it. It's ultra-low-latency, anticipates what you'll reach for next, and bubbles up the signals and insights that deserve your attention.

From them demo it looks like some search on structured data interface. So model the git data somehow and then index them?

For me, the word salad on the front page isn't helping.

Well if you had a predictive surface you could have anticipated this product and already knew what it was.

"near-instant" what's that mean. nanoseconds, milliseconds, seconds, mins, hours, days
