I had no money when I started the company.
It was $160 million, which is the size of many IPOs.
Excited.
Yeah.
So Seaforge is the company's name.
The platform is called Fatfinger.
Our customers named it.
And it came from my work.
I worked my entire life in heavy industry.
And basically, we enable frontline employees to build apps in seconds.
And so those apps are typically based around forms, procedures, checklists, anything that Bob is walking around in, maybe an oil refinery or a field service worker is doing things like safety, quality, field tickets, anything on a clipboard.
Bob is able to build an app for himself or his team or his company with no code, not low code in basically seconds.
Exactly.
So it starts from an end user or bottom of the pyramid and it starts working its way up when they start adopting.
Yeah, exactly.
So, you know, they start searching around and now Bob is kind of in our generation and kind of, you know, not using paper and wanting to be mobile enabled.
So they start searching around, find Fatfinger, sign up to our free trial, go through our 60 second tutorial and, you know,
At the end of it, he's created his first custom app, and then that really gets the wheels spinning, the juices flowing to say, wow, I could not only do my original intent, which might have been his safety inspection, but then, oh, why aren't we doing our XYZ processes or procedures?
And that starts...
um, you know, maybe sharing the app with other people or, or gaining momentum.
