FAQ:
- Q: Hello, I am considering a small investment to support my Southbury neighbor and military vets. I have some questions for you, as well as ideas to fuel your user growth that I know a little bit about, and sent you a Linkedin invite to discuss further. Regards, V
  A: Hi Vilem, responding now to your LinkedIn. Thanks! - KRS
- Q: Do you intend to expand your market from auto loans to credit cards? I think credit cards have much higher rates than auto loans.
  A: Hello Tem, yes we plan on expanding in the future with additional debt vehicles. In addition, we have some very exciting new roll outs with Android version, and some multiple revenue producing features. January 2022 is going to be a massive marketing blitz for all new tech and these features :)
- Q: How are you currently protecting your IP?
  A: Hi Omar. At the moment, we are not looking into IP protection for our current process and backend. We spent a good chunk of time discussing the pro's and con's of both considerations, and ultimately (at that juncture) the cost to do so made little sense with how markets and tech move. Thank you for the question and consideration. Best, Ken S.
