I think this is maybe not the sexiest area that the Silicon Valley companies are building in.
One, it's very difficult.
You have to get integrated with companies very closely.
We partner with large private equity firms and large enterprises in these industries to really learn their workflow.
Yeah, I think the question is about does that contractor, a solo contractor or maybe a few people, do they need AI today, right?
I think in that type of small business level, if anything, capacity and labor, being able to go take on more jobs is the more problem than maybe investing the small capital you have to AI tools.
This is why we actually started with more mid-market and large enterprises because they're at a point that they can invest for more growth with AI tools versus not.
I did not, but I got to listen to him in D.C.
when he was talking for the AI executive order, and I was front row and loved that he talked about this type of jobs because I think we need to encourage the young people to go into skilled labor a lot more as AI does displace job in more computer-backed, maybe small, menial task areas.
These are the jobs that are not replaced for the next hundred years.
So the code editor is largely the place where you build software. And today, or for a long time, that's meant the place where you text edit a formal programming language. And for people who aren't programmers, the way to think of a code editor is like a really souped-up word processor for programmers, where the reason it's souped up is code has a lot of structure.

And so the quote-unquote word processor, the code editor, can actually do a lot for you that word processors sort of in the writing space haven't been able to do for people editing text there.

And so that's everything from giving you visual differentiation of the actual tokens in the code so you can scan it quickly, to letting you navigate around the code base, sort of like you're navigating around the internet with hyperlinks. You're going to sort of definitions of things you're using, to error checking to catch rudimentary bugs.

And so traditionally, that's what a code editor has meant. And I think that what a code editor is is going to change a lot over the next 10 years as what it means to build software maybe starts to look a bit different. I think also a code editor should just be fun.
