Dev slams Reflection AI for letting users grab API keys, then revealing access is restricted
jasonkneen · x · 2026-10-06
Developer Jason Kneen criticized Reflection AI's onboarding: users are led into the docs to get an API key, log in and share their details — only to then be told access is restricted. He called out the pattern of "pretending you have a product, collecting signups, then saying we'll let you know," urging the company to "do better."
