If you don't entirely understand what an LSP is (like me), there's a good entry on https://bitcoin.design and Roy from Breez has a good article on it:
It's a very broad category of things. It's basically any third-party service that makes it easier to run a lightning node/wallet. So a "full-service" LSP likely does everything that's possible to make it easier to run a lightning node.

I think this is the first end-user product shipment. They launched Slashtags but it's more so a protocol.
