I'm curious what the business model is. These seems like a service business, you have to manual create each graphic. Then hope that one can be used long term.

Seems less of a saas and more of a service business, which typically doesn't scale the way YC companies are expected to.

Love to hear your feedback

We do not manually create any graphs. The infrastructure we have developed allows us to create new graphs without writing any code:

- On the backend we can add new data pipelines to any public data by setting a few configuration parameters

- The front end is completely modular with re-usable D3 components

While we are doing the configuration ourselves for now, we plan to open this up over time.

In addition, because each of our data viz is connected to live data feeds, it creates an ever-expanding library with decreasing effort/time from HiGeorge. More content, more revenue, less time/effort as time goes on.
