“Our net revenue retention was about 160% a year for partners and our gross retention about 99% a month or about 86% a year. So really, really sticky customer base that we're able to essentially land and expand in.”
“I pitched about 100 different VCs. I'm thinking like 200, two fifty, 300 meetings, like two or three meetings a day is it was savage.”
“Last year, I don't think there's a single point in the entire year where we had more than three months runway. So throughout this process is where we had to make sure that we had cash in the bank and we're trying to keep the team on this journey as well.”
