How much have you raised?
So we raised a $700,000 seed round, which Kevin Ryan, who founded MongoDB and Guilt and has done a lot in the tech space in New York, actually led.
And then we're just getting ready.
Probably in two or three weeks, we'll start going out for that Series A round.
No, we had quite a syndicate.
It was a real mix of guys in both the hedge fund space and the HR space as well.
Kevin led, right?
Kevin led the round, though, yes.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I think at an early stage, you want both founders bought into a huge extent.
And I think the way Eric and I work, we really see it as both of our companies.
And I think in a way, a lot of what he bet on was the dynamic between us and us being able to figure it out together.
And he's definitely a great resource if we're trying to talk through a decision we maybe disagree on or sort of want a really expert opinion on.
But I think that by and large, he's had a lot of confidence in our ability to navigate it and figure it out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
