The founder had the classic experience that we've all had.

I believe he was on a beach in France and arguing with a credit card company as to whether or not he was who he is.

And he thought there has got to be a better way than the annoying questions that we all know.

It's called knowledge-based authentication.

What's the size of your mortgage?

What's the last transaction you did?

What's your dog's name?

All that stuff, which, by the way, is very easy to actually break into somebody's identity just by Googling and looking at their Facebook page and answer some of those questions.

So he said there's got to be a better way.

And he came up with this.

which was a really great way to do it, which is make it so dead easy.

Pull out your phone and take a picture.

So what year was that?

That product, this company was founded with some other products, but that was about three or four years ago.

Okay.

So let's call it 2013.

Now, when did you come in?

I came in two years ago.

Okay.

So about two years after it launched.
