Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 32 stories with headroom
What would move Fireworks AI’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.
