## Quote — verbatim

> Everything we do contributes to these two numbers, because adoption turns out it's the only thing that matters. And if you look at adoption, we grew forty percent week \[over\] week from last week in terms of active deployments.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Greg's daily metrics: active deployments and ease of deploying. He cites "52 active deployments with a little over 4,000 applications in total" (the "52" is likely a caption artifact, possibly "520").
