Content Marketing Software
Veed is an online video editing platform founded in 2018 and co-led by CEO Sabba Keynejad and CTO Tim. The company helps creators, marketers, podcasters, and businesses produce subtitled videos, audiograms, and social clips through a browser-based tool that requires no software installation. At the time of its August 2020 interview, Veed had just crossed $1 million ARR two months prior and was sitting at approximately $1.5 million ARR with 5,500 customers and a team of 20, all without raising outside capital. Since that early bootstrapped stage, Veed has grown substantially. Revenue reached $4.2 million in 2021, $7 million in 2022, $15 million in 2023, and $40 million in 2024. The company raised a Series A of $35 million at a $160 million valuation in 2022 and has grown its team to 210 people. The single most interesting strategic fact from the founding period is Veed's product-led growth model: the tool is fully usable without an account, and downloaded videos carry a watermark that converts free users into paying subscribers at $15 or $30 per month. This freemium loop, combined with a daily YouTube content strategy targeting zero-position Google results, drove the company from zero to $1.5 million ARR in roughly 14 months of charging customers, entirely without paid acquisition.
