Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income TaxesIn determining quarterly provisions for income taxes, the Company uses the annual estimated effective tax rate applied to the actual year-to-date profit or loss, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The Company updates its estimate of its annual effective tax rate at the end of each quarterly period. The estimate takes into account annual forecasted income (loss) before income taxes, the geographic mix of income (loss) before income taxes and any significant permanent tax items. The Company did not have provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022, reflected the impact of a change in U.S. tax law effective January 1, 2022, which requires the capitalization and amortization of research and experimental expenditures incurred after December 31, 2021. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021, taxpayers are required to capitalize and amortize certain research and experimental expenditures that are paid or incurred in connection with their trade or business. Due to the expected tax loss, the provision did not have tax impact to the quarter. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding realization of such assets. The Company accounts for the uncertainty in income taxes by utilizing a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure in financial statements of any uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken on an income tax return. There had been no changes in the estimated uncertain tax benefits recorded as of June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021.
