Key Pain Points

Coverage & freshness gaps -- Common Crawl is broad but not identical to proprietary crawlers; customers needing the deepest, freshest coverage may prefer paid indexes
Easy to replicate -- technical barrier is moderate; competitors could reprocess Common Crawl or partner with others to offer similar tooling
Pricing pressure/monetization challenges -- lifetime pricing can accelerate adoption but may cap long-term ARPU and create cashflow constraints
