Revenue Recognition

Note 2: Revenue Recognition

The Company’s AI-powered conversational analytics technology platform provides data and insights into the conversations our clients are having with their customers across phone, text and other communication channels. Our tools enable brands to personalize customer interactions in order to accelerate sales and capture more opportunities to grow their business. The Company generates revenue from its conversational analytics technology platform when customers pay the Company a fee for call, text, or other communication related data elements they receive from calls or texts or for each phone number tracked based on a pre-negotiated rate. Revenue is recognized as services are provided over time, which is generally measured by the delivery of each call/text or call/text related data element or each phone number tracked.

The majority of the Company’s customers are invoiced on a monthly basis following the month of the delivery of services and are required to make payments under standard credit terms. Net accounts receivable, including unbilled accounts receivable, consists of the following:
