The gap it fixes

The closest existing competitor in this space, Simple Object Copy (32,992 downloads, PAID, JetBrains Marketplace id 18151), has real, verbatim user complaints:

  • java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "com.intellij.psi.PsiMethod.getProject()" because "psiMethod" is null — a real crash, with stack trace, from a real user.
  • "不支持kotlin。。。" — "Doesn't support Kotlin..."
  • "直接报错不能用，真是xswl，就这还收费" — "Straight up errors, unusable, and this still costs money"
  • Abandoned since 2022-05 (no release in 4+ years), no bugtracker link on the listing.

62% of its reviews are ≤3 stars. The positive reviews confirm the core function is genuinely wanted (one user describes saving a full day of work migrating off a hand-rolled beancopy utility) — the complaints are about how it's built, not whether the feature is useful.

Turbo Log Companion
Debugging / Codegen
