Searchable just hit $3M in ARR and closed a $14M investment at an $85M valuation š
Itās been a wild few months. Let me explain a bit about how we got here.
Last year, I noticed AI was fundamentally changing how everyone finds their information, and if your business wasnāt indexing within AI search engines, you are going to lose out.
There are 1 billion monthly users on ChatGPT.
750 million on Google Gemini.
100 million for Perplexity
And about 50 million on Claude.
Not only that, but half of all Google searches now show with an AI overview.
Weāre in the middle of a massive behavioural shift, and most businesses still havenāt realised it.
In September, I flew to San Francisco to network with the best engineers I could find.
I was lucky enough to sit down with Sam Hogan and Arya Nagabhyru, who were working at YC start-ups at the time and were both as convinced as I was that AI Search would be the next billion-dollar industry.
They moved to London, and we spent 70, 80, 90-hour weeks testing our idea and building our first MVP.
In December, we did a soft launch and generated some incredible feedback.
Whilst everyone else was celebrating Christmas, we worked non-stop to implement every piece of feedback.
In January, we launched publicly and hit $1M ARR in 3 weeks.
I truly believe what weāre building is the best tool on the market.
Weāve started to grow an incredible team to help scale Searchable into a billion-dollar business, and weāre working flat out to make that a reality.
Iāve just released a full breakdown of every step we went through to take this from an idea and turn it into a viable business.

Iāll also give you free access to our visibility report so you can see how your business is mentioned in ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google.
