We started bootstrapped.
And we worked our way up.
And lately, we have been seeking some funding to accelerate our growth.
We had a good, very good period in the pandemics where people were spending a lot more time in front of the computer.
But then, you know, we had a slowdown and meanwhile, we have moved towards the enterprise world, which is a very, I would say, complicated and sophisticated world from several aspects.
One of them being the time it takes from the initial contact to signing a deal, a contract.
I don't, but that's a good question.
I will definitely look into that.
But it wasn't too long ago.
We started off with a small team, and then we started to add more complexity to the product.
And it was an organic growth process.
And, you know, we learned a lot and we like to believe that everything that we have learned from customer experience and customer needs, we have put in the product.
So today I'm quite proud to say that we're very close to meeting most of our customers' needs and we're very close of solving most of our customers' problems.
So right now we have over 28,000 paying customers.
We will reintroduce the freemium version.
We took it out at some point in time and we now realize that we didn't do a very good job on that, but we all make mistakes.
But we're used by millions of people.
Probably 12.
Are you happy with that growth rate?
You know, entrepreneurs are never happy.
