The engineering team is in Israel.

I'm based in Israel and kind of fly a lot.

10.

So we have seven people in Israel and three in the U.S.

It's mostly engineers and some engineering support.

But yeah, for the most part, it's very heavy on the R&D.

It's a good question.

So I, yeah, I lived in the, so I'm Israeli, you know, by origin.

I lived in the States between 2015 and, sorry, 2005 and 2015.

I got an MBA, worked for Microsoft in Seattle and then San Francisco in a company called Fuse.

It was a Zoom competitor.

So I kind of, you know, come from the communication space and chatbots were kind of, you know, taking off or starting to be interesting.

And there was a lot of hype.

And then we, I was just, you know, we decided to move back to Israel, like as a family after a long time in the States.

And I was looking, you know, I kind of decided I'm going to do a startup.

And, you know, I had a bad experience with UPS in Silicon Valley, delivering a computer.

So that kind of, you know, it was kind of a personal experience.

And I got to thinking, okay, like chatbots, this can, you know, communications is really the problem here.

And that was the genesis of, you know, how we got started.

So that was the company we founded in 2017 and got started a bit before I met Yoav, my partner, who is the CTO and the master engineering mind behind us.
