Executive summary

  • Q1 2026 revenues were $148.9 million, down 30% year-over-year from a record Q1 2025, due to fewer fee-paying clients and lower transaction completions, but client engagement and pipeline are at multi-year highs.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
