“So it currently costs us about $20 to get an active user. And within 120 days, at least over the last twelve months, we've averaged $275 per active user. So super fast return. It's actually an 80% gross margin business, always shocks everybody.”
“It's $9,000 per hire fixed. You could think of it as roughly 15% of salary depending on the role. In many cases, it's gonna be less than that. And then we have an alternate model for people who wanna lean into it where they can pay 6 k a year in a subscription and then pay 6 k per hire instead of 9 k.”
“Yeah. So think of it as 3%. So from the top of active users, like 3%, at least at the current state of the marketplace is about what it looks like.”
