The longer a customer runs Retently, the more it is worth to them: years of NPS and CSAT history to trend against, integrations wired into their stack, and workflows the team relies on. Greg built around the idea that the real value of a feedback platform is not any single screen but everything that accumulates on top of it over time. That compounding is good for the customer, whose data only gets richer and more useful, and it is what turns a tool into something teams stay with for years instead of reshopping every renewal. Build for the value that deepens with use, not just the feature that demos well on day one.
