Hrytseniuk is walking through how a frontline unit earns points for verified strikes and spends them on drones in a marketplace he calls a military Amazon. He contrasts it with centralised procurement, where units file requests and wait.

Okay, okay. So, can you walk us through the full life cycle of an e-point in the bonus program? Firm strike in Delta to E-Points in the unit's account, and finally to an order for drones on the Brave One market.
Yeah, sure. You hit the target, you upload the materials and put the target on the map. The verification team of Brave One is verifying and either confirming or rejecting. The unit can send the appeal in case it was rejected, but the unit sure that it was destroyed. Of course, we are playing with artificial intelligence to automate routine procedures and minimize human work. And after that, in Bray One marketplace, in our military Amazon, every unit see the number of bonuses on their balance on their account. They can select the drones that they need today, right now, that are the most needed by the unit, and they click to send this drone to the shopping cart, like in Amazon or eBay, and to click order and pay by bonus. And after that, the number of bonuses, the balance is reduced. The manufacturer sends the drones to the unit. And after that, within five days, the money comes to the account of producer, manufacturer of drone. And in this way, we see that in comparison with traditional legacy procurement procedures that exist in every country and works in a centralized manner, when unions have to send report some request to provide some drones, Bray One marketplace with this asymmetrical approach with bonuses, the average time from clicking on the shopping cart, order the drone to get and to use it in two weeks. Wow. This is absolutely tremendous important impact because in half a year, the drones that have been ordered half a year ago can be outdated. But in case you get the weapon in two weeks, it works brilliantly. You very quickly receive exactly what you
need. Yeah. And the vendors, are they all vetted by the Department of Defense or how does someone get their weapon into the marketplace?
Initially, the manufacturers register, they pass some compliance procedures. It's very short compliance and they can publish the add-ons. The drone manufacturers select where they would like to be published in public catalog or in private catalog, in closed catalog that is available only by military units. And after that, the drone measures can certify the add-ons, pass some process of codification, to get NATO code for this. And on this stage, it can be officially purchased by the government, either in a centralized way or drone bonuses can be exchanged to the drones. In some categories, we even allow to use bonuses for non-codified, non-certified drones. And this is the responsibility of the unit in case it sees that something is very interesting and needed and effective for them available on the marketplace. They not to wait until the full certification process happens and instantly get these drones.
I've heard a lot about the feedback loop between drone units and the manufacturers that suggestions to improve and the manufacturers improve so that it's a very rapid iteration process with the manufacturers. Does that happen through Gray 1 or is there a separate channel that the drone units are talking to the manufacturers through?
