Quest turns that workflow into structured software: requests become itineraries, pricing becomes traceable, and final proposals become branded PDF and email outputs.</p>

 - Avoid saying `zero cloud data storage` unless it is strictly true. Safer phrasing: `local-first workflows` and `privacy-first note ownership`.
 - Replace `45+ language localization` if current supported production locales are closer to 10. Safer phrasing: `localized UI/content and multilingual AI note workflows`.
 - Keep Slid technical depth, but compress it slightly so HoverNotes + Quest feel like the current center of gravity.
