Pros
  • Metric-driven optimization loop is principled, not vibes-based
  • Language and hardware agnostic - only needs a numeric eval
  • Strong research pedigree (AIDE, Aiden, SpecBench)
  • Open CLI (weco-cli) lowers integration friction
  • Genuinely useful for GPU kernel and ML perf work
  • Industry-standard for ML tracking
  • Weave adds LLM-native eval
  • Mature, reliable
  • Strong enterprise features
Cons
  • Only works when success can be expressed as a single number
  • Pricing for hosted product not publicly disclosed
  • Overkill for one-shot code edits or qualitative tasks
  • Smaller community than mainstream AI eval tools
  • Heavier UX than LLM-native tools
  • LLM features still catching up
