See, these invitations are not, they are the people who we know in our business community who can give us feedback and honest feedback when it comes to what the product is and how the product is and how much, what all we can improve.

And based on the feedback that we have got, we are going into phase two.

And hopefully by the year end, we should be launching phase two of Upwork.

Bootstrapped as of now, hopefully God willing by next year, May, June, we should be in a position to start talking to investors.

Um, see right now, uh, we want to do a lot of stuff when it comes to the product.

And for that, we would require external capital and, um,

And right now, since we would also want to hire good AI research scientists, because at the moment we are only, we are two of us.

I'm not a research scientist.

So my co-founder Tushar is.

So based on...

His understanding of things, we would be requiring a lot of people in this domain.

For that, we would require funds in order to hire good talent.

So we'll be spending money on hiring good talent as well as on promotional activities.

At the moment, our basic estimate is about $650,000.

At the moment, we are seven of us.

We are how many?

One, two, three engineers.

Personally, I've invested about in dollar terms, about $60,000.

Okay.

My old startup.
