Um, what changes in the procurement landscape make your solution especially relevant to today with all the different things going on right now?

I mean, there's se- several things.

I mean, there's a lot of pressure on, uh, procurement and really the whole...

All, all functions in the business to, you know, reduce, reduce spend, reduce budget, reduce head count.

Uh, and you know, the, the...

I think a lot of procurement leaders are struggling to s- to understand, like, how can they operate giving these, you know, new constraints.

Um, and I think we can show that we can make your, your procurement teams a lot more efficient and it, and it really increase the scope of the spe- of what procurement is addressing even as the budget, as the, as the head count gets reduced.

Um, if you, if you were to pick one, um, of the, I guess, the biggest friction point that procurement teams see, um, and they live through time to time, um, which one of those would you, would you pick first? Now, what is the biggest prick- friction point that you see that your product addresses first?

Okay

... seeing, and you can, like seeing things like Andromeda through a telescope, and then they even have, uh, spectrographs, so you can even take spectra of, of stars.

[laughs]

Um.

[Instrumental music] But yeah, the idea is you have this globular, you have this cluster of stars all born at the same time, all really old now.

So it's a great way to study, um, different phases of a star's evolution.
