Genspark Revenue: The Real Numbers Behind the $36M ARR Claim

Genspark's CEO says Super Agent hit $10M ARR in nine days and $36M in 45. Here is the dated, sourced record — and the corrections to our earlier reporting.

How much revenue does Genspark actually make? The freshest number GetLatka's database records is $250 million in annual recurring revenue as of June 2026, a figure that surfaced around the company's June 17, 2026 funding announcement. But the number this page was built on is the earlier, louder one: in May 2025, co-founder and CEO Eric Jing said on X that Genspark's Super Agent had reached $36 million in ARR 45 days after launch, with a team of roughly 20 people and, by his account, nothing spent on ads.

Those are company claims, not audited financials, and this article treats them that way. Every figure below carries a date and a source. Where GetLatka's own database and the public record disagree, we say so on the page.

Correction: an earlier version of this article said Genspark was founded by "Eric An," a serial entrepreneur who "sold SiteAdvisor to McAfee for $74.5 million in 2006," and built an investor-thesis analysis on that exit. That biography was wrong in every particular: no Genspark founder had anything to do with SiteAdvisor. The earlier version also put $36 million in its headline while the body only ever discussed $10 million, and used invented subscriber math (10,000 users at $99 a month) that matched neither figure. All of it has been removed. What follows is the sourced record.

Genspark's revenue story is unusually well time-stamped because Jing narrated it in public as it happened. Here is the milestone record as GetLatka's database holds it, with each row's source:

January 2026$155MGetLatka's database
March 2026$200MCompany LinkedIn post
June 2026$250MCompany announcement, via Yahoo Finance

One timing wrinkle we have not reconciled: the company's launch narrative says Super Agent shipped at the start of April 2025 and passed $10 million in annualized revenue nine days later, which lands in mid-April. Our database logs the $10 million milestone in March 2025. One of those dates is off by a few weeks.

The arithmetic worth doing is the one the company invites: $36 million in ARR across a team of about 20 works out to roughly $1.8 million in ARR per employee at the time of the May 2025 claim. Both inputs are company-reported, so the ratio inherits their caveats, but it is the honest version of the efficiency story, not the invented one the old article told.

Who actually founded Genspark

Genspark was founded in 2023 by Eric Jing (Jing Kun) and Kay Zhu (Zhu Kaihua), operating under the company MainFunc before the product name took over. Jing is a former Baidu executive who ran Xiaodu, Baidu's smart-device and voice-assistant unit; Zhu was Xiaodu's CTO. The company is headquartered in Palo Alto, California.

That background matters for a simpler reason than the fabricated exit story the old article leaned on: the founding team had already built and scaled consumer AI products inside one of China's largest search companies, and investors treated them accordingly, seeding the company at roughly a quarter-billion-dollar valuation before it had meaningful revenue.

The pivot: from AI search engine to Super Agent

Genspark's first product, launched in June 2024, was an AI search engine. Its signature feature was the Sparkpage: instead of a list of links, specialized agents researched a query and generated a custom results page. The product got attention and funding, but it was not the revenue engine.

That came with the pivot to agents. In early April 2025 the company launched Genspark Super Agent, a general-purpose AI agent that plans multi-step tasks, calls tools, and produces finished output rather than chat responses, with a paid Plus tier priced at $24.99 a month at launch, per TechCrunch's April 2025 coverage. The revenue claims started almost immediately: $10 million annualized within nine days of launch, $22 million later that April, and the $36 million figure 45 days in. Through 2025 and 2026 the company kept shipping on top of the agent platform, including the Genspark Claw execution layer announced in March 2026, and by its June 2026 press release was describing itself as an all-in-one AI workspace.

Funding: four rounds to a $2.6 billion valuation

Series B extensionsMarch and June 2026To $485M total Series B$1.6B, then $2.6BSozo Ventures, Korea Mirae Asset, UpHonest Capital

Two details in that table correct the record. First, the $100 million round at a $530 million valuation was reported by Reuters and SiliconANGLE in February 2025, before Super Agent existed publicly. The old version of this article framed that raise as a reward for the launch; it preceded the launch. What the money was actually chasing at the time was the AI search product and the team.

Second, the growth after the pivot is what moved the valuation: $1.25 billion in November 2025, $1.6 billion in a March 2026 extension reported by Axios, and $2.6 billion post-money in the June 17, 2026 extension, announced alongside the appointment of Jamison Powell as chief revenue officer.

Where our database and the public record disagree

GetLatka's Genspark company page is built from public sources and proprietary models, and the company has not sat for a Latka interview, so it is worth being explicit about the soft spots:

  • Our database records $535 million raised across four rounds. Genspark's own June 2026 release puts the Series B alone at $485 million, which with the seed and Series A implies about $645 million in total. The gap is the March 2026 extension our funding table carries without an amount; we have not reconciled it.
  • Our database rounds the November 2025 Series B valuation to $1.3 billion; contemporaneous reporting said $1.25 billion post-money.
  • Our database models roughly 1,000 customers at a $250,000 average contract value. That is an estimation artifact, not a company claim, and it does not map cleanly onto a product whose paid tier launched at $24.99 a month. Treat the ARR milestones above, not the modeled ACV, as the revenue signal.
  • The March-versus-April question on the $10 million milestone, flagged under the revenue table.

None of Genspark's revenue figures are audited, and none have been independently verified; they are the founder's and company's public claims, consistently repeated and so far uncontradicted. The things that would harden this record are an audited number, a major-outlet verification, or the company walking Latka through the math on tape. Until one of those happens, the honest summary is this: a 2023-founded team of ex-Baidu operators pivoted from AI search to agents in April 2025, publicly claimed one of the fastest revenue ramps in software, and has since raised at a $2.6 billion valuation from investors who evidently believe them.
