So we built like a 300 engineers network.

And we built an algorithm that can build teams for the task at hand for releases.

So that was a cool one, actually.

We made about a million dollars of revenue in the first year of operation.

So that's one of the valuations.

Was it in 2017?

Yeah.

So like we first, you know, first there was like pre-launch activities, obviously.

So preparations.

And then as soon as we launched, we got to like the million dollars in revenue by the end of the year.

So say like...

Correct.

Yeah.

It was getting optimized over time though.

So like it would go, you know, it would start at like 70% and then goes down to like 60%, but eventually we were reinvesting everything, making back in the business.

So Mocus happened at a time when, so I'm a Syrian founder, so I come from Syria and it happened at a time when the Syrian war was at its peak and I had to change country.

Lucky for me, Mocus, I built it when, you know, without venture backing.

So I built it all by myself.

So I didn't have to, you know,

deal with complexities of closing down shop.
