And this is what changed in the beginning, yes.

I myself was an employee, but my co-founder was also founder of the agency.

So this is how it started.

Well, this was far later, to be honest, like two years ago.

At first, we left it inside the agency and kind of split the pot and said, OK, this is this team and this is this team.

And later we are just like you normally do.

You found a new company and you have to pay some taxes, et cetera.

We didn't raise at all.

The only money we took was, let's say, the initial investment of the agency, which meant like at the very, very beginning, for sure, one employee was like building it on the site, let's say 10 hours per week, etc.

But even after that, we just took the money we got from new licenses and hired new people and invested it over the years into the product.

And that's where we are today.

So it's really a rough number because it's hard to differentiate, but maybe $100,000.

It could be $100,000.

Because, like I said, it's hard to tell because the people are going to work full-time in the beginning, etc.

We just looked it up.
