Stripe offered to acquire us for $1.2 billion when we had $2M in revenue.
Today, we've raised $330M at an $8B valuation and reached $1B ARR.
We could've died three times during this journey.

At 16, I lost all financial support.
I moved to Australia at 15. But a year later, my family lost everything.
I couldn't go back home so I had to find a way to pay my tuition fees of $24,000 on my own.
