31 million people signed up so far.
Turns out there were a lot of us.

HeyGen just hit $100M ARR this month, 29 months after we first reached $1M in April 2023.
None of this happens without our incredible team, customers, partners, and community. Thank you 💜
When we shared our first $1M milestone, it was to give back to the build-in-public community. The AI landscape has changed completely since then, but one thing hasn’t: how we build.
Internally, we’ve called it our “bible,” the system that’s guided us from $1M to $100M. It’s built from countless team discussions, experiments, and lessons learned along the way. After much reflection, I wanted to document what’s worked for us — for our team and for everyone building in AI.
We’re sharing it not because it’s perfect, but because it’s working. It’s how we deliver customer value, learn faster than the world changes, and keep riding the wave.
This is The HeyGen Way.
