Lots of: "Message recieved [sic] in wrong format. Please retry"

The topbar is really confusing.

Other than that, good work.

Top bar is only for a product demo at 5pm so everyone can clearly see. :)

Thanks for the great feedback!

The error message is being changed as we speak to be more specific so users know where they went wrong.

Thanks :)

I'm always intrigued by Twilio hacks. I'm always intrigued by APIs that work in the 'real world' or have physical outputs - i.e. not just web apps talking to each other.

Are there other examples of APIs like this? (e.g. MOO for printing)

Really neat idea - I can see it working incredibly well for those of us just looking for a quick estimate when thinking about buying a car.

I really hope you guys take it further, and maybe sneak in the ability to check motorcycles too? :)
