Many people send requests along the lines of “Hey, my company is evaluating different routing applications. I’d like to send you some data, have you route it and send it back. Based on that, we’ll make a decision about using the Headlight service.” At first glance, that seems reasonable for both parties. The person gets real-world results and we get a potential customer.
