We really need that to come from our own existing users.

Hey, I'm using this.

This is what you should be using.

And that's definitely something we need to work on in terms of giving users easy ways to invite people into the platform.

And we're doing that a lot with public groups that you can invite people to.

You now have yak.com profile pages that you can paste places.

So a lot of what we're working on is kind of that inter-app virality.

Got it.

Yeah, so we raised a little bit under 2.2 to date.

We hopefully will have a new funding announcement very soon here as we kind of go into Series A. That's great.

Yeah.

So we're, we're working around kind of an $8 million number.

Um, we're remote, we're based in Florida, you know, we can do a lot with a little, and so 8 million gets us, you know, quite a long way.

Yep.

Yeah, absolutely.

I mean, we were, you know, small startup with, you know, no pedigree.

And so valuation has always been something we're super sensitive about.

Um,

you know, as we've gone through these funding processes, that's actually been kind of the number one thing we've had to, you know, fight for.

Industry-wise, we're doing really well in terms of like other audio startups, other remote startups that are raising kind of like the 30, 40 range.
