During an acquisition evaluation, eBay's CFO, Head of Collectibles USA, and four other senior executives came to see the robotics division at Gradient. I was one of four Gradient leaders to present, owning the entire technical stack and explaining our robotic process. I also built an instant eBay integration demo feature that left them all speechless.

Unfortunately for us, eBay only maintains close business relationships with partners over $10M in ARR. We missed that mark, so the acquisition could not proceed.
