Just on that point about the pledge, because I got to attend that event at the White House.
You organized it.
Well, don't be modest.
I mean, it's going to be a little bit too much credit.
But it was honestly it was you and Amy Gleason and Secretary Kennedy.
And you guys just happened to invite me for some reason.
But it was it was really interesting because so this is my kind of layman's understanding of it, which is.
The law gives us the right to our own medical records.
But in practice, we don't get them.
HIPAA regulations?
Well, it's because the companies that store the health records do it in proprietary formats.
And we don't really know how to get that data and what we do with it even if we did.
So the key is to get those health records shared to all the other medical companies in the space that we might want to use.
Hence the power of the pledge.
Get these 600 companies agreeing.
But I think that AI is kind of the magic glue here because AI is so good at reading data from different formats and translating it.
So you don't need like a perfect API anymore.
You just get the unstructured data, dump it in, and now it just works.
Yeah, you being able to realize the promise that the law gives you to actually own your own medical data, but to get it in a usable format
That now you can use, again, a chat interface to understand it.
