Could you build this?
No GPU-accelerated lexing requires deep specialized knowledge of parallel automata algorithms, GPGPU programming (CUDA/OpenCL/WebGPU), and low-level memory coherence models.
What it would actually take: A GPU lexer translates regular expressions into deterministic finite automata (DFA) matrices optimized for SIMD/warp execution, typically built in C++/CUDA or Rust/wgpu. The hard part is handling parallel tokenization with lookaheads, variable token boundaries, and prefix sums for stream compaction without thread divergence killing performance. This demands advanced expertise in compiler theory, parallel prefix sum algorithms, and GPU microarchitectures.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
