                      We hit a big milestone this week: we now have 10 customers who’ve been with us, paying every month, for over 10 years straight.

                     And this number’s only going up as more longtime customers hit their 10-year mark. Our very first paying customer signed up in January 2015, and it’s amazing to see those relationships still going strong. The thought that some of these 10 customers may still be with us in 2035? Wild. And incredibly humbling.
