What's with the name?

In his studies, Har Rai came across the Arabic word Wasta and the Chinese word Guanxi, which refer to an individual's social network and influential business relationships.

Upon reflection, Har Rai realized that banks and credit unions are struggling to translate their in-person influence or sway to their technology stack. Thus, the name Swaystack was born.
