A customer cancelled Comcast/Xfinity internet because service was not available at their new address and was told no cancellation fee would apply, yet the fee later appeared as a collections entry on their credit report. This mirrors a broader telecom pattern where verbal fee-waiver promises made at cancellation are not reliably recorded in the account or billing system.

Building agent-ready search requires stitching together separate full-text, vector, and geo systems

Teams building AI agents that need search typically have to combine separate full-text, vector, geo, and image search systems, manage their own infrastructure clusters, and lack a way to verify that relevance changes actually improve results before shipping. Search Stack packages these into one JSON API that agents can also read and write to directly via MCP, with built-in evaluations.
