Host (likely the producer or a presenter from AI HR)

And they acquired that for $166 million back in 2020.

So at Snapchat, he oversaw the development of AI powered creative tools, and he later became the core Snapchats.

He was really critical to Snapchats like camera and AR strategy.

And that whole experience that he had obviously has been able to shape a lot of what Higgs feels focusing on today for creators and social media platforms.

What I do think is interesting is that Higgs field launched their product publicly only nine months ago.

So it's not like it's been around for a very long time.

and its growth numbers are really, really impressive, even for AI companies.

Five months after they launched, they reported 11 million users, and they said that they had become a preferred platform for content creators.

As of this month, they say that they have surpassed 15 million users, and they've reached $200 million in annual revenue run rate.

So according to them, that number has doubled from 100 million pace in roughly two months.

So

If this is all accurate, that growth would essentially put Higgs field among some of the fastest growing consumer facing AI companies to date, right?

Like, I mean, this is incredible growth.

They have some press material and they claim that their trajectory is outpacing well-known software startups like lovable cursor, open AI, Slack, and Zoom.

I mean...

OK, sure.

But it's going to be pretty hard to outpace OpenAI in the long run on video.

But I do think it's impressive.

But it's always funny when people toot their own horn and compare themselves to the growth rate of OpenAI, which I don't know if they're going to ever catch up to that.

But in any case, while a lot of those companies are, you know, inherently selective, they also underline how aggressively Higgs field wants to be perceived as more than just a viral app.
