Q but I wanted to sort of give the opportunity for folks to, like, get to know the new cognition and understand, like, how did this deal come together? Both of you have, like, relayed a little bit in your, in your tweets and stuff, uh, but I, I don't know, you, you want to take it from here as to, like, how the, the relationship between the two companies started?
A Yeah, I got a, actually, there was a couple of ways. Scott, Scott tried multiple paths to get to me. So there was a text message through a friend that, that put us together. And then there was also an email that had a subject matter of like, it's just a chat with a question mark. And, uh, I mean, it, it caught our eye. And I think when we were looking at like Friday was like a frantic day of telephone calls, I'll say, I think we, I probably called at least 70 different people on Friday. Um, and like when Scott, when I talked to Scott, it was just like, Hey, this kind of makes sense. Like there was other companies. That were interested. There was actually VCs that wanted to invest. Um, but Scott, as, as a person with, with Russell, and then I was with Graham, uh, just talking about like, what are the companies actually missing from each other? And then also what are the, what are the product synergies as well?
