Peec AI grew from $0 to $5M ARR in its first 11 months and doubled to $10M ARR in the five months that followed. Headcount grew from 25 to more than 70 employees across engineering, go-to-market and operations in the last six months.
"Brands that figured out SEO early won the last decade. The same dynamic is playing out right now with AI search — just compressed into months, not years," said Marius Meiners, co-founder and CEO of Peec AI.
Peec AI counts more than 2500 customers globally, including brands like Attio, Squarespace, TUI and Hugo Boss, with the US emerging as its fastest-growing market as brands race to measure and improve their AI search presence.
Peec AI has emerged as one of the fastest-growing AI software companies in Europe. The company was featured by Ramp among the world's breakout software vendors, and ranked #2 in Harmonic's Q2 2026 Hot 25 startup ranking.
Peec AI was founded in January 2025 by Marius Meiners, Daniel Drabo and Tobias Siwonia at Antler. The company raised a €7M seed round led by 20VC in 24h, reportedly the fastest seed investment in the firm's history, followed by a $21M Series A led by Singular in November 2025. Total funding to date stands at $29M.
What's next
The New York office isn't just a flag in the ground. The US is Peec's fastest-growing market, and the team is actively hiring across sales, customer success, and engineering to meet it.
The product roadmap reflects the same ambition: with AI search analytics as the foundation, Peec AI is now building toward brand perception, commerce, and the ability to act on all of it and measure what moves.
