The first one is just the category that you're in.

So for us, it's a fitness app, but it's a fitness app specific to swimming.

In 2018?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
MySwimPro Hit 15k Customers, $1m in ARR Selling Swim Instructions

We were app of the year in 2016.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
MySwimPro Hit 15k Customers, $1m in ARR Selling Swim Instructions

So 2017 is where we started to see those results because they announced it at the end of the year in December.
