There is a lot of opportunity coming together in this area. I'm of the belief that full automation (no/limited humans) is the cleanest way to deliver - and that' the path we're taking. Layer in some positive behavior re-inforcement and it will be interesting to watch the industry thrive outside the traditional players.
