Clickup Close To $34m in Revenue, Competing in Project Management Space with 300,000 Paid Seats

So we have a lot of free users.

We measure customers on the number of teams.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Clickup Close To $34m in Revenue, Competing in Project Management Space with 300,000 Paid Seats

So it's about 10 seats per team would be our average.

But yeah, team is just kind of the high level organizational unit.

It varies.

The whole goal of ClickUp was being flexible enough for you to work on it for any type of use case.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Clickup Close To $34m in Revenue, Competing in Project Management Space with 300,000 Paid Seats

It started as an internal tool.

And so for that reason, we have families that use us, and then we have people that are sending rockets into the space.

Yeah.

I don't know if I'd want to be in that family.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

Yep.

End of 2017.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

So we were actually going to do a Craigslist competitor where you could pay in-app and remove the sketchiness from Craigslist.

Craigslist is actually the source of the largest fraud in the United States.

So that was our whole goal was preventing that.

And while we were doing that, ClickUp had always been kind of an idea in the back burner just for an internal tool from the frustrations of having 15 different productivity apps that we were using at my previous company.

Well, so to be clear, we didn't actually get started on that, the Craigslist competitor.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

It was in the idea phase.

And we were like, let's just spend a month and create this platform where we can put all of our work there.

And that's what we did.
