Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company is taxed as a C corporation and is subject to federal and state income taxes. The Company’s sole material tax asset is the economic interest in Clue Opco LLC ("Opco"), which is a limited liability company that is taxed as a partnership for federal and certain state and local income tax purposes. Opco’s net taxable income and related tax credits, if any, are passed through to its partners and included in the partner’s tax returns. The income tax burden on the earnings or losses taxed to the noncontrolling interest holders is not reported by the Company in its condensed consolidated financial statements. As a result, the Company's effective tax rate differs materially from the statutory rate. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $1,793 and of $19,589, respectively. The effective tax rate of (4.7)% and (47.1)% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, varied from the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to the effect interest expense disallowances under IRC Section 163(j) for which a full valuation allowance was recorded on the deferred tax asset, noncontrolling interest and state and local income taxes. In connection with the Omni Acquisition, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement with certain Omni Holders. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has recorded a Tax Receivable Agreement liability of $10,580, related to contingent consideration. The Company concluded additional Tax Receivable Agreement payments related to the year ended December 31, 2025 would be probable based on estimates of future taxable income over the term of the Tax Receivable Agreement and recorded a payable of $968. For the period ended March 31, 2026, the Company updated this estimate to a total estimated payable of $17,675 that is payable based on the 2025 taxable income and 2026 estimated taxable income. The $16,707 charge to increase the Tax Receivable Agreement liability is recorded in Other (expense) income, net. If other tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement are determined to be payable, additional Tax Receivable Agreement liabilities may be considered probable at that time. The determination of the Tax Receivable Agreement liability requires the Company to make judgments in estimating the amount of tax attributes as of the date of exchanges (such as cash to be received by the Company on a hypothetical sale of assets and allocation of gain or loss to the Company at the time of the exchanges taking into consideration partnership tax rules). The amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement will also vary depending upon a number of factors, including tax rates in effect, as well as the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income in the future and the expected realization of tax benefits with respect to deferred tax assets related to tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement. Furthermore, amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement as a result of a change of control may be substantially in excess of the amounts set forth above due to, among other things, contractual provisions that require any such calculation to assume that all applicable tax benefits are used by the Company over the applicable tax years. The Company also maintains a full valuation allowance to reserve against its net deferred tax assets, which are primarily related to outside basis difference in investments, Federal net operating loss carryforward, and IRC section 163(j) interest limitation carryforward. The Company assessed the likelihood that its deferred tax assets would be recovered from estimated future taxable income and available tax planning strategies. In making this assessment, all available evidence was considered including economic climate, as well as reasonable tax planning strategies. In general, it is the practice and intention of the Company to reinvest the earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has not recorded a provision for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes on investments in foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested. Generally, such amounts become subject to U.S. taxation upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances.
