Yeah.

So the, the story was, is, uh, 2012 was probably more of the, we actually launched it in 2013, but I'm, I had previously sold another company I had called E-Verify, which was in the data, uh, space, if you will, on individuals and, uh, sold it in, uh, in early 2012.

And, uh, What'd you sell that for Devin?

Well, I can't release the number, but it's- Come on, give me a big old range.

It was nine figures.

So it was a good deal.

But there's a private equity group that still owns it.

So I'm still under NDA.

But basically what that was is, we built that up to almost 3,500 people that were in the field for us.

And it was data on individuals.

And then when I sold it,

I was looking to get involved in other things and just became a venture investor and said, oh, well, that's just super easy to do because I'm a genius now at 28.

And I can definitely tell you I'm not a genius.

And as I as I was looking at different things, social became more prevalent as being the newest data set.

And so, uh, found a couple, uh, actually guys that were working, uh, I don't want to say college dorm room, but it was a college cafeteria that were trying to figure out a way to match your, um, um, what song you would like with your social media history.

So think of like iTunes, but for using social.

And I said, Hey, that's interesting.

Seated it.

Um, and then with how much, how'd you see it for a seated for 250 grand.

close i was actually running something as well called the ata atlanta technology angels so like a formalized angel group and they had wanted to come pitch that and as i looked at it i was like well i could probably be more helpful um uh as an advisor and as an investor and then so i seeded it and that's how we met they were working georgia but i met them through here okay got it is that your so are you down there with david cummings in atlanta the the tech space and all that
