Hello. I came across your website(s) via Missile Defense Agency. I have an interesting solution for Synthetic Data Generation in advertising networks and data involving measurement and prediction; too bad I just missed the deadline [again] for April 10th. Not a concern though, I got it from a foreign developer to leverage it [somewhere] - never expected to see it here. "Arbitraging" [T2] with foreign countries is just as good as not taking money from them.
We have to connect! I look forward to doing so. - Matt V, TechBoost - 4845017389
