When NOT to use OpenPipe
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- Avoid if requiring real-time support or updates as development is currently paused for integration of proprietary code
- Not ideal for users needing immediate access to the latest features due to its transition phase
