    Go, with two conditions. The market is crowded but the three-way match gap on partial receipts is real. I need pricing interviews and the SOC 2 review before plan submission.

    Understood. I have three finance directors confirmed for interviews next week and I am booking the security review now.

    Thanks for the interview notes. Two of five said they would pay above $1,000 a month. Add that to the revenue assumptions in your plan.
