Already inside the gate: the company is specified into someone else's next wave, and the wave has not yet shipped
The model's full reasoning — Q2 2022 call → NOWe need answer YES/NO based on transcript. Need determine if management describes already chosen/specified/designed into another org's future product/program/platform, wave not yet arrived, position large relative, preparing. Transcript: Progress Software. They discuss products, acquisitions, Kemp integration, M&A, price increases, etc. No mention of being designed into another company's next product. They mention Telerik UI for .NET MAUI launched same day Microsoft made .NET MAUI generally available. That is a product compatible with Microsoft's framework, but not "chosen/specified" inside Microsoft's next thing? They launched a product for .NET MAUI, but no statement that Microsoft selected them. Also mention ISVs embed products, revenue sharing/royalty arrangements. That is ordinary vendor/embedded? They have over 1,700 ISVs who embed products. But no specific "next wave" of ISV product not yet launched. They say "As many of these companies raise prices, we indirectly benefit." No design win. Also mention Chef cloud security product, MOVEit 2022, etc. No. Question asks: Does management describe that company has ALREADY BEEN CHOSEN, SPECIFIED, QUALIFIED, DESIGNED IN, OR OTHERWISE LOCKED INTO POSITION INSIDE ANOTHER ORGANIZATION'S FUTURE PRODUCT... AND wave not yet shipped? No. They talk about mission-critical products, recurring revenue, retention. No specific counterparty's future program. So answer NO. Need output only YES or NO.

CUBI · Q3 2018 → YESThe question is about whether management describes that the company has already been chosen or locked into another organization's future product/program, such that volume will come automatically when ...NO The transcript describes a white-label partnership with T-Mobile where BankMobile provides services under T-Mobile's brand, with deposits expected to start in the next year after the launch. However, this does not meet the criteria for a secured position inside T-Mobile's next product or program. The language focuses on a partnership relationship that is still being launched, rather than a design win or qualification already embedded in T-Mobile's future offering. Management refers to it as an "expected white label partnership" and "working on" the launch, indicating it is not yet locked in as part of T-Mobile's committed plan.

However, this is framed as an announcement of a new agreement rather than a secured, locked-in position already designed 100% into the platform with volume guaranteed.
