What is the Viewer bucket? The 14% Viewer allocation covers all components dealing with 3D visualization, CAD viewing, GIS formats, thermal imaging, tagging systems, and the multi-tenant data vault. These are the capabilities that make Pre-Loss a platform rather than a service — the difference between selling time and charging a SaaS multiple.
