Could you build this?

Yes A CLI or service that creates copy-on-write folder copies can wrap existing OS primitives (APFS clonefile, reflinks, overlayfs, git worktrees), which AI-assisted coding handles well for a basic version. The website text is mostly unrelated GitHub page boilerplate, so the product is judged from its tagline.
