Absolutely. And I think that data is just such a good place to be. So I have been spending a lot of time in the like big data analysts, Tableau, Power BI forums, hanging out, seeing what those people are doing. And everyone needs data.

It really is interesting too, like some people just want to throw their Excel files into ChatGPT and we can enable that. It's literally like at its very, very core, all of this packaging and positioning, we're still solving the same problem.
