It's like shining, it's like turning on the light on the battle space, the things that you couldn't see before you could see now. Now, some important, might seem slightly technocratic, but we're providing the software to the government customers. No one's providing us all of this data. The government has the data, great, but it's just sitting there. It's in the dark.

It's hard to see all of this information. It's overwhelming. Great. How do we get the spotlight to highlight the things that actually matter? How do I get to ask the next question? Here's something that's risky. Okay, what are the next 10 questions you're going to want? Can you even answer those 10 questions in 10 seconds, or is that going to take you 10 weeks?

If it takes you 10 weeks, you're not even going to bother answering those questions. So can I make that fast enough that you get to why does this matter and is this a threat or is this irrelevant? That's the first part. The second part of it that's really important is because why is this information sharing so hard? Well, there are lots of rules and regulations. People have different authorities.

Different things can be shared. The way we enforce that today is with humans. which is crazy, which is why it's slow and inefficient and you miss things. We replace that enforcement with software. The software ensures no one can see anything they're not allowed to see.

The software ensures under the right conditions for information sharing, the right pieces of information flow from one agency to the other. So by automating that flow, it means that you kind of have a hive mind.

the entire government can operate competently because you're actually able to see everything you're allowed to see, as opposed to, well, we have humans who are gatekeeping us along the way, just slowing everything down, which always, when you have humans, it always devolves into control.

The mission gets obfuscated by, well, we do this job, they do that job, and the interpersonal factors get in the way.

Well, you know, it was really hard because none of us had worked in government. None of us had clearances. We would go to D.C. We'd literally carry our Pelican case with a projector. I mean, talk about state of technology. You couldn't even rely on a projector being in the government conference room.
