Compile-time memory tracking and automated memory deallocation

Help
1

I was reading this article Why Zig has become the highest-paying programming language and I read the following:

Zig’s consistent memory management, which incorporates functions like compile-time memory tracking and automated memory deallocation, is one of its main advantages.

Are they talking about defer in de-allocation as automated memory deallocation?
And what is comptime memory tracking? Do these exist in Zig?

Makes very little sense. That wasn’t written by a programmer, let alone a Zig user.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that article is at least partially generated with LLMs.
