Profound Pitch Deck

Profound is a New York City-based ‘AI visibility’ startup that offers an analytics platform that helps brands understand and manage how they appear in AI-generated content, such as responses from AI assistants like ChatGPT.

The company was launched in early 2024 by James Cadwallader and Dylan Babbs, who met at startup incubator South Park Commons. Profound processes more than 100 million AI search queries each month, supports customers in 18 countries and six languages, and already counts enterprises like Indeed, MongoDB, and Ramp among its users.

Early adopters report a 25-40 percent lift in AI answer share-of-voice within 60 days. The company has announced a $20 million Series A round led by Kleiner Perkins.
