OpenClawd had about a two week moat...
Feature delivery rate by Anthropic is basically a fast takeoff in miniature. Pushing out multiple features each week that used to take enterprises quarters to deliver.

I like to just check the release notes from time to time:

and the equally frenetic openclaw:

GPT-4.1 was released a year ago today. Sonnet 4 is ~11 months old. The claude-code cli was released last Feb. Gas Town is 3 months old.
This is a chart that simply counts the bullet points in the release notes of claude code since inception:
This is as bad and as slow as it's going to be.
The velocity of shipping is wild. Though I cannot recall a novel feature they shipped first. Can you?
Hard to wanna go all-in on the Anthropic ecosystem with how inconsistent model output from their top-tier has been recently. I pay $$$ for api-level opus 4.6 to avoid any low-tier binning or throttling or subversive "its peak rn so we're gonna serve up sonnet in place of opus for the next few hours" but I still find that the quality has been really hit or miss lately.
The bell curve up and then back down has been so jarring that I am pivoting to fully diversifying my use of all models to ensure that no one org has me by the horns.
And yet none of them work properly and are unstable.
You're delusional if you think these features would take competent programmers quarters to deliver.
Do you mean a 3 months moat? Moltbot started going viral in January. That seems to be about a quarter to deliver to me : )
