Is it like walk, crawl, run?

Like, do you imagine that you're going to bring in like a new like, you know, like a, you know, like a band that's performing at a concert and that's going to be a new user that has been on the fence and not jumped in?

Or do you think that there will be?

a sort of more gradual evolution from people that are throwing events on Partiful.

It's an easy add-on.

So the next one in their series of events, they will just have paid ticketing for because they already have a lot of traction and they're a power user.

Yeah, I can imagine like a lot of even emerging artists that aren't on like some insane, you know, tour, you know, et cetera.

and represented.

The experience of an artist being able to send a easy text blast and feel like they're communicating and then have social features built in, I feel like that'll be a much cooler experience.

What trends are you seeing on Partiful?

I feel like you guys should, maybe you do and I haven't seen them, but I want to know, have run clubs peaked?

Have people stopped running from whatever they're running from?

Like what's kind of maybe more rising?

How is the health of the lookalike meetup ecosystem?

Have we reached peak lookalike meetup or are we continuing to boom?

Like, I don't... Yeah, it has a crazy feedback loop, too, because the meetup itself produces so much viral content that then feeds the meme, because it's like, well, that person doesn't look exactly like...

So, uh, have you discovered any like lessons from like particularly seamless payment processing?

I feel like so much of the beauty of Partiful is like how, like the text message integration, the seamlessness.

And I feel like there's demand for

Apple Pay or Venmo.
