You're right that their search and indexing tech is proprietary. My "middleman" comment was referring only to the final generation model (GPT-4, Claude, etc.), which is sourced from other providers (plus their own internal Sonar model).
My preference is to use the synthesis models directly, but I concede that calling the entire service a "middleman" wasn't entirely accurate.
I haven't used it for creative stuff as much so I can't comment on that. I assume it would do as well as other chat bots.
