Quotes from Josh Wetzel:

"OneSignal is a customer engagement platform, it's currently installed in approximately 1 every 5 new mobile Android and iOS mobile apps. We support businesses across the globe. We deliver about 11.5 - 12 billion messages a day.” “I see it both as a consumer and in my role here [in OneSignal]. There is a decline in the efficacy of user acquisition due to some things happing with app targeting and the costs are rising in general." “I think there is a great example [Netflix] when adding the ad component, I think it was a big mistake."
