NoteThe source directly confirms the claim's exact value of 200 employees as of January 2025. The source explicitly states this figure multiple times in the opening paragraphs. The claim's exact stored value (200) matches the source's stated headcount. The temporal alignment is perfect (both refer to January 2025). The source also notes that LinkedIn lists a '51-200 range,' which is consistent with the 200-person figure being at the upper end of that range.
