Investor

Frustrating to read an investor update & have no idea how the company is actually doing. https://twitter.com/pitdesi/status/1633496440784977920 - I want to see:

  1. revenue, burn, cash on hand
  2. other KPI's / priorities (margin/cac etc) relative to previous periods & a score
  3. successes (new logos)/failures (churn)
  4. how we can help
