Today, with over 1 billion successful picks and industry-wide recognition, we're realizing that vision at scale. This accelerated growth strategy is the next step in our journey. Bringing Avi on board as President and CCO is instrumental in executing this vision. His commercial acumen will be crucial as we expand our market presence, strengthen our growth initiatives and continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in logistics automation. We're not just growing; we're shaping the future of the industry."
