Short answer: Sam Nadler demos a portfolio scenario tool built with Emblem in mind: pick a macro scenario such as regulatory pressure, its speed and a time horizon, and AI sorts companies into unaffected, advantage and stress zones.

Sam Nadler [1:12]: Amazing. And before we get into the docket for this week, please don't forget to like and subscribe. We've just crossed 20,000 subscribers on YouTube. We have episodes out each and every Friday, so hit that bell, hit that like button. And the docket for this week, we're gonna go over a little portfolio scenario tool we built with Emblem in mind. Then we're gonna jump into the Emblem product, and finally, we're gonna cover the latest and greatest in AI news. So with that in mind, August and I discussed a few different potential future features for Emblem. And just to keep in mind, as August mentioned, Emblem is this and now we'll get into it a little bit later, but it's this amazing tool for managers and investors to, better access their data, build financial reports at the touch of a button, discover their alpha within seconds. We'll get into it. But one of the tools we, features we discussed was potentially building a portfolio scenario tool, which is what I have displayed here.
Sam Nadler [2:20]: So assume our portfolio has 30, seed companies. We have Construct, that's a great name, SwiftPay, AgroLogistix, which we invested as in the seed round in 2022. But there's potential macro scenarios on the horizon. Maybe regulatory pressure increase. We can increase the speed of change. Maybe it's it's only a temporary potential macro scenario happening. Markets sentiment will leave relatively unchanged, and the time horizon, six months, twelve months, twenty four months, whatever, run the simulation, and we can see how this potential macro scenario could theoretically affect our portfolio. AI is doing its work, beep, bop, boop, beep, bop, and boom. And here it is. So from regulatory friction point of view, you have your, series of companies that, look like they wouldn't be affected. Some could be in the advantage zone, some could be in a potential stress zone, and some I could keep your eye on. So this is obviously, a demo tool. This is something maybe Emblem could layer on in the future. I wanna show one more scenario. Liquidity supernova.
Sam Nadler [3:45]: Every company has A liquidity event. We've got cash flowing. Everything is on the up and up, has been greatest investors of all time over here. But now, anyway, August, time to transition. Tell us about Emblem, what you guys are building, who the customer is, and how you're using AI.
