Pros
- Instant deployment of serverless endpoints without infrastructure management
- Built-in Standard Library with pre-configured connectors for popular APIs like Slack, Discord, and Airtable
- Browser-based code editor eliminates local setup requirements
Cons

- Trusted by 200,000+ businesses including major brands like MTN and Domino's Pizza
Cons
- Primarily focused on African markets — limited utility for businesses outside Africa
- Transaction-based fees can add up significantly for high-volume merchants
