We have produced three units and sold two of them. The third unit is being used at trade shows and for operational demonstrations.There is interest around the world in our unique product. We are actively engaged in sales conversations with companies in the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Poland, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, India, Thailand, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, Mexico, Canada, and the United States.And our network of sales agents worldwide is bringing in additional customers weekly.The market is interested; now, we need to start manufacturing units and shipping to fill that interest.With your help, we can make that happen.Tim Fulton\u0026nbsp;spent over 38 years as a ramp agent for Alaska Airlines. He\u0026nbsp;then founded Ramper Innovations to pursue his dream of making the airline industry safer. He combined his\u0026nbsp;extensive experience in the airline industry and product development to develop a loading solution that saved rampers' backs \u0026amp; saved airlines money: TISABAS. Coming from the same background as my clients gives me unique insights into the challenges they face. And I am passionate and committed to making ramp agents’ jobs safer and easier. But don’t just take my word for it! I have received several awards from Alaska Airlines for safety, environmental, customer service and innovation. I was especially honored to receive the Legend Award from Alaska Airlines, which is given to select employees for going above and beyond consistently over years of service.

You are not locked into the amount you have currently reserved. This amount can increase or decrease once we have everything in place with the SEC and we can actually take investment.

TISABAS takes only seconds to be deployed in an empty belly, but I think the question is about the time it takes during the unload/loading process. The device has two speeds that can be programmed based on the user's needs. The slow speed that we have programed will move one more bag a minute than an experienced well rested crew.
