That was essentially it.
But that was extremely draining.
The team stuck with it because we believed in the vision.
Even in 2012, 2013, we saw call blocking coming.
We started our first variance of our features to make that easier.
And once we got done with the lawsuit, then we were able to raise the crowdfunding round and the rest is sort of history.
Everybody's really glad they stuck around because we're making such a huge difference now.
So, you know, they're paying what a typical enterprise pays, which means, you know, five digits, but we can't talk about all the details, obviously.
So it can be somewhere in that range.
And then carriers are similar.
And what an enterprise gets for that is if there's somebody out there that's being an imposter, that's pretending to be them, we will let them know how many of those calls are out there and we will shut them down.
And so we will make it so those guys can't pop up.
If they pop up again, we whack them.
And so that's a really great business because it essentially protects the enterprise's brand reputation, protects their call centers, and protects just random people from harm from a given imposter thinking it's whoever that enterprise is.
Actually, it's grown a bit.
The thing is, the B2C business is critical for us.
They're a sensor network that tells us what's going on with scam calls.
So everybody who has email is contributing to the fight to stop robocalls.
There's data about this illegal call hit this person and let this message pretending to be, say, Amazon.
That's extremely valuable for the enterprise side of the business because we have all this data we can use that tells us here's exactly what's going on.
