About Reach
At Reach we're building building the operating system to help companies monitor and control their visibility in AI search. We combine our platform, custom AI agents, and the top 1% of hands-on experts in organic growth (SEO & AEO) to help companies show up when buyers are researching and comparing solutions on Google and inside AI search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, and turn that visibility into pipeline and revenue.
We reach ~$450k ARR in the first 6 months, basically bootstrapped, growing fast, and targeting $5M ARR by the end of 2026. We've been doing this for companies like ColdIQ ($7M ARR, #1 Clay worldwide sales agency), Indie Campers ($140M+ ARR), Carro, Fidelidade, Fraudio, Noxus and others.
A few recent results:
Helped ColdIQ influence $534k in ARR in a single month, with SEO and AI search becoming their #1 traffic source
Grew Indie Campers' organic revenue by 8.8% YoY and AI search revenue by 254% in 5 months
Got Carro recommended in competitive AI prompts like "best Mirakl alternative," consistently generating leads from AI recommendations.

We're turning services into software to disrupt the $100B+ SEO/AI Search market, which will get drastically bigger as search behavior shifts to AI and ad budgets follow.
