CEO/Founder Richard White · San Francisco, California, United States
Fathom.ai is a free AI meeting assistant founded in 2020 by Richard White, who serves as CEO. The product records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams, and is used by organizations ranging from small teams to large enterprises. White built Fathom on a deliberately capital-efficient model, raising approximately $30 million in total across multiple tranches and a Series A, while growing annual recurring revenue from $1 million in 2023 to $10 million in 2024 and $30 million in 2025. The company kept no more than roughly $1 million to $2 million in cash at any given time during its early years. Fathom prices at $25 per seat per month, with an average account size of 8 to 10 seats and an average contract value of approximately $200 per month. The company offers its core individual product for free and monetizes through a team-tier product layered on top, a structure White credits with enabling generous free access while sustaining revenue growth.

"Overall we basically went, in the first year we went zero to a million. Took about a year to get to a million in ARR."
"We gave equity to our first 100 users — actually I think it's maybe like 200, 250. And so we kind of set up this principle where every time we raised a round, we reserved 15% of it for our users to invest. We did that at our seed round and at our series A."Watch at 18:36
"Nathan Latka: You'd raise us at a 73,000,000 valuation. Looks like is this right? You're doing about 7,700,000 of ARR then. Is that right? Richard White: I think when we raised our series A, we were doing actually around, I guess by the time it got announced maybe, when we first tapered it, it was like 3,500,000, but we were ramping pretty quickly."Watch at 19:40
