Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

The variety of viewing options allows us to present events in the format that best fits each page. I appreciate the seamless Google Calendar integration—it saves time and ensures accuracy.
