This might be the coolest thing I have ever seen. It's like a human powered CNC. If they can keep the price point on this at a reasonable level they will sell a ton of them.

VERY cool.
There's an immediate need for that tool in aerospace fabrication. Would save a ton of capital on templates and the labor-time involved to maintain them.

Now. I want it now. I don't do that many small items, but time saved on cutouts by not needing to switch jigs around would be enormous. Custom logos in cabs, I can see a bunch of uses in my shop.

I watched the demo video and then ended up following the YouTube related link to the 1-hour Louis CK comedy show thing. I don't know what that has to do with precision routing but I laughed my ass off.
The Internet can be a real time vampire sometimes.
