[00:35:53] S1: Would you say that's when you felt like you had true product market fit? [00:35:57] S0: The product market fit I felt pretty early, even in the gig space, because it just was such an addictive product. Even with Level Goals, you just – they just wanted to use it for every loan they transacted with. I didn't realize how big the business was until we exited the gig space or until we went to all types of income. A good way to know product-market fit is if you have a lot of clients that are addicted to using your product and keep using it day after day, and that we had. [00:36:28] S1: Perfect. Then the final question we like to end on is, if you could go back, whether at the beginning of this startup or the beginning of your first startup, with one piece of advice, what might that be?

[00:36:28] S1: Perfect. Then the final question we like to end on is, if you could go back, whether at the beginning of this startup or the beginning of your first startup, with one piece of advice, what might that be? [00:36:38] S0: Gosh. I don't know if it's advice. I wish that we did – even as much planning as we did, we've rebuilt Argyle several times. I think we're on API v3, and a lot of that is because we were just – we were so interested in just tinkering, building, getting feedback, building again. I do think that that has – at several junction points has slowed us down. We've had to convince clients to pivot over to the new version of our API because we rebuilt it from scratch because we realized it was wrong, and some of that is just we could have been more strategic about the product or the infrastructure we were building and be more thoughtful about it. I encourage people to – it's great to build an MVP. When you build the real version of it, be super thoughtful. It's okay if it takes a little longer than you want it to. It will pay dividends later. [00:37:27] S1: We'll stop it there, Shmulik. It was a pleasure speaking with you. Thank you for jumping on the show. [00:37:32] S0: I enjoyed it.
