And what I've said to the team, it's like we're the space shuttle docking on the International Space Station.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

You know, the mission stays the same.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Capacity Acquires $5m ARR Bootstrapped YouCanBookMe To Build AI Support Mega Platform

We're still doing the same stuff, but we're basically joining a much larger, bigger operation so we can keep going with it.

So it's 50-50, 50 cash, 50 equity.

And did you start there?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

We negotiated, there was quite a few different terms that we negotiated, but I want to say this is really important, is that we were able to take a really generous amount of equity that we're really super happy with.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

A, because it feels like we're fully invested in the success of You Can Book Me Inside capacity, but also because we're bootstrapped.

So for me and Keith, as founders, we could take a hybrid offer much more easily than so many people who, as David says,

take on far too much complicated cap table nonsense at the very beginning and I highly recommend it because as founders as bootstrap founders we were able to do a deal that exactly when we got our number Nathan we got exactly what we wanted we're really happy but at the same time we've actually now got this new relationship with Capacity and David which makes it even better than what we were doing before yeah the last thing I just kind of leave us with because I know we're hitting time is Nathan from our perspective whenever we work with a company like You Can Book Me what
