With 750K Paid Users, Evernote Brings In $18 Million A Year | TechCrunch

Evernote CEO Phil Libin is on a tear; After making Inc Magazine’s “Company of the year” issue, partnering with French telecom company Orange and launching two apps, Hello and Food, he took the stage at Le Web to talk very candidly about Evernote numbers. Libin revealed that the company has hit 20 million registered users just 3 1/2 years after its launch, with 8 million monthly actives. These users are long-term, Libin emphasized, with 42% eventually returning after they leave, “People that leave kind of miss it,” Libin said. He revealed that 750K of that 20 million are Evernote Premium users, paying $5 a month and $45 a year for the extremely handy services. Those paid users amount to $18 million in bookings Libin told me backstage after his talk, and the company was profitable until six months ago where it started aggressively hiring post its funding. http://techcrunch.com/2011/12/08/with-750k-paid-users-evernote-brings-in-18-million-a-year/
It may seem strange to think of productivity app Evernote as a platform, but with 20 million users and 9,000 apps built on the client, the three and a half-year old startup is a veritable apps ecosystem. Beyond this developer ecosystem, the company released five of its own simple and unique Evernote-based apps in the past year: Hello, an app that helps you remember people, Food, an app that helps you remember important meals, Skitch, an app that lets you communicate visually, Peek, an app that utilizes the iPad cover for a novel take on tutoring, and Clearly, an app that makes content easier to read within Evernote. To support all this app building, Evernote, which has a $95.5 million coffer from Sequoia Capital, Troika Dialog, DoCoMo Capital and Morgenthaler Ventures, has been quietly acquiring smaller companies from its talented developer pool. http://techcrunch.com/2012/01/24/evernote-bought-four-companies-last-year-and-almost-nobody-knew-about-it/

Evernote Passes 500,000 Registered Users, Most of Them On The iPhone

Reaching one million registered users is an important milestone for any startup. At the very least, it suggests that it is pointed in the right direction. Evernote , the app which helps you remember things you find on the Web or take photos of with your phone, just hit one million registered users a couple days ago, about a year after its public launch in June, 2008 and six months after it reached 500,000 registered users . The company raised $4.5 million at the end of last year. Evernote’s growth is not rocket-like by any means, but it is steady and consistent.

Evernote, the startup that boosts your memory, raises $10 million | VentureBeat

Evernote, which lets you record almost any type of data and recall it when you need it, just raised $10 million in a second round of venture-backed financing. It was led by Morgenthaler Ventures, with more funding from earlier investors including Troika Dialog. (The startup said it raised $2 million from NTT DoCoMo in October on top of $4.5 million in a venture-backed round in January. They also raised $6 million in angel funding back in 2006.) http://venturebeat.com/2009/11/15/evernote-the-startup-that-boosts-your-memory-raises-10-million/

Evernote Reaches Two Million Lifeloggers, Half Of Them Are On Th

“Evernote is definitely positioned to be the lifelogging tool of choice,” says CEO Phil Libin. “That ambient video capture was my original plan for Evernote—always recording, not storing, you bookmark it—that is exactly what we want to do.” Next year Evernote will introduce voice search, which will be a big step towards that ultimate vision (if you can search audio, you can search through what was said in videos). But full life recording is still a few years out. For now, Libin is more focussed on polishing his current product as it enters the mainstream.
The title says most of this story, but there are a couple of interesting details that are worth sharing. First, while it took 447 days to reach their first million users, it took 222 days to hit the two million mark, and only 134 days to reach three million. That’s pretty impressive.

Evernote surpasses 3 million users

Evernote just revealed the next phase of its business plan during a small press conference at the company's Mountain View offices. Evernote, which wants to be the "global platform for human memory," currently allows its users to capture a lot of different types of data but doesn't offer a lot of ways to manage and structure this information. Going forward, Evernote's plan is to allow its users to add more structure to their data, visualize it and find hidden connections. Evernote also launched a new product called Evernote Trunk today. Currently, this is only a showcase for third-party services that integrate with Evernote, though the company plans to turn it into a full-blown Evernote app store in the near future.

Evernote Is Still Growing Like A Weed, Hits 4 Million Users

Evernote , the ‘memory enhancement’ service that allows one to capture, organize, and find information across multiple devices and platforms, is gaining new users at a fast clip. As you can tell from the graph above, the Mountain View startup needed 446 days to get its first million users , 222 days to get to its second million , and 134 days to get to its third . But it only took Evernote another 108 days to reach the 4 million users milestone, the company is set to announce later today. Chief executive Phil Libin tells me the large majority of its user base is located in the United States, but not overwhelmingly so: about 57%, followed by 18% who hail from Japan, where the startup now boasts an office . A decent number of users comes from Spain, UK and Germany, and more than 12% of its users are located in the ‘rest of the world’.
