Konnect Insights, founded in 2016 and headquartered in Mumbai, India, is a bootstrapped omnichannel customer experience platform built for enterprise and mid-market brands. Sameer Narkar, the company's CEO and chief architect, has led the business from under $500K in annual revenue roughly five to six years ago to a current revenue run rate of $8.5M ARR as of June 2026, with a target of closing the year at $11M ARR. The company is profitable at margins upward of 20% and has never taken outside equity funding, though it occasionally uses small debt facilities of $300K to $400K for event spending. Konnect Insights serves more than 500 paying customers across 30-plus countries, with pricing ranging from $10K per year at the entry level to over $100K per year for large enterprise accounts such as telecom brands, airlines, and banks. The average contract value for a mid-size customer is approximately $25K per year. The company grew at roughly 60% in one year, then 85% the following year, and is currently adding between $450K and $500K of new ARR per month with a team of 150 employees, including 55 engineers based in Mumbai and sales and SDR teams across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and the UK. The single most important strategic driver of Konnect Insights' growth has been its partner-led distribution model. Rather than building a large direct sales force, the company empowers 68 signed partners, of which roughly 30 actively generate revenue, by offering a markup model where partners can add a 25% margin on top of Konnect Insights' base pricing and retain 100% of implementation and support fees. This partner network, combined with a team of 24 SDRs who route leads through partners in key international markets, has allowed the company to expand rapidly without venture capital.
