But Chris, you can talk a lot about, I know, how do you define a lead?
4:00
I mean, I think the definition of a lead from Yale perspective, you kind of hit on the other question that you guys had, which is, do I know if they're good or not? I think it's pretty interesting.
4:10
And, you know, that's sort of at the core of what Hatch is.
4:15
We're an AI lead management platform really to help home service businesses convert these things into appointments that then turn into revenue.
4:23
And so the contractors that I see that take an approach almost like your ad agency, which is like, I'm going to track this thing from the source.
4:34
Did they even reply to me? If they did reply to me, did they book an appointment? If they booked the appointment, did they end up becoming a closed deal? And how much does the deal work? And I've got to map that whole thing out.
4:46
And if I can do that, I can start to say, well, Yelp works for me or doesn't.

the end.
9:14
For Hatch.
9:14
I mean, that's a, that's a good question.
9:16
I, I'll take it from the Hatch side, Jed.
9:18
Is that cool? And then you can probably fill in, you know, Yelp's perspective.
9:22
Um, so you know, for Hatch, you know, we've been around for, gosh, almost 10 years.
9:28
Six of that we were a software company, and then the last three years we really doubled down on AI as we saw the need in the industry.
9:36
Um, you know, we were growing like a weed since AI came out because it makes so much sense that you could get AI to do some of these tasks for you, right?
10:01
Mm-hmm.
