Claims

  • [verified]

    Lindy was founded in January 2023 as a pivot from Flo Crivello's earlier company Teamflow (a virtual-office platform whose growth flatlined post-pandemic)

    One low-quality aggregator (baeseokjae.github.io) states 'founded in 2022,' but this is a single uncorroborated source that also carries other unverified figures; the January 2023 date is corroborated by a founder-interview primary source and an independent company database.

  • [verified]

    Lindy holds a 4.9/5 rating on G2 (based on roughly 170 reviews), which the company links to from its own homepage

    Confirmed via Lindy's own site and an independent review aggregator citing the same G2 figure.

  • [plausible]

    Lindy has raised roughly $50-54M in total funding, with a $35M Series B (January 2023) led by Battery Ventures, plus Menlo Ventures, Coatue and Tiger Global among investors

    Battery Ventures' own portfolio page (direct fetch) confirms an investment relationship dating to 2021 (likely carried over from the Teamflow entity). Exact totals vary by source ($50M, $53.6M, $54M) and round counts vary (Tracxn shows only 1 disclosed round vs. Wellfound's seed/Series A/Series B structure); no primary press release was retrievable to lock the exact figure.

  • [plausible]

    Current headcount is roughly 40-55 employees (2026)

    Tracxn (direct fetch) lists 55 employees as of June 30, 2026; Latka (direct fetch) lists 37 as of December 2024; PitchBook (search-surfaced) lists 40. Estimates cluster in the same range but no company-disclosed figure exists.

  • [plausible]

    Lindy's independent review-site reputation sharply contradicts its advertised G2 score: Trustpilot rates it 'Poor,' cited at 1.7/5 to 2.4/5, driven by billing-overcharge and unresponsive-support complaints

    Two independently fetched third-party reviews both quote the low Trustpilot score and describe the same complaint pattern (post-cancellation charges, credit-system opacity, slow support). Trustpilot's own page returned HTTP 403 and could not be fetched directly, so this rests on secondary citations rather than the primary listing.

  • [contradicted]

    Lindy's integration/app-connection count as marketed varies wildly: its own homepage says '100+ integrations,' while a third-party review says 'connects with 3,000+ apps,' and other secondary sources cite 1,600 or 2,300

    Both figures were pulled from direct fetches of the company's own current homepage and an independent review, so this is not a stale-vs-current discrepancy but a genuine inconsistency in how the integration count is represented across Lindy's own and third-party marketing.

  • [thin]

    Lindy reached roughly $5.1M in ARR by October 2024, up from an earlier 6-figure MRR milestone the founder described in an interview

    Single-source aggregator (Latka) estimate; the founder's own '6-figure MRR' and '10x this year' comments (Indie Hackers) are undated relative to the Latka figure and are not a specific number. No current (2026) revenue figure could be located.

    getlatka.com

  • [thin]

    Lindy serves '5,000+ customers across industries'

    This customer count appears in only one low-credibility aggregator source, which also states an incorrect founding year (2022) and a funding total ($54M) not corroborated elsewhere. Lindy's own homepage discloses no customer count. Treat as unverified marketing content, not a confirmed figure.

Gaps

  • No primary press release (e.g., TechCrunch) confirming the exact Series A/Series B dollar amounts and dates could be retrieved; Crunchbase's organization page returned HTTP 403 on direct fetch.
  • No current (2026) revenue/ARR figure disclosed by the company; most recent quantified estimate (Latka, $5.1M ARR) is from October 2024.
  • Third-party valuation estimates for Lindy range implausibly from $15.3M (Latka, 2025 'M&A Offer' round) to $288M (UpMarket model), with no authoritative source; this spread suggests the aggregator figures are unreliable rather than reflecting a real valuation event, and no company-disclosed valuation exists.
  • Could not directly fetch G2 or Trustpilot's own pages (both blocked); rating figures rest on secondary citations of those pages rather than the primary listings themselves.
  • No evidence found of Lindy operating as an 'agent-run' or near-zero-employee company itself; it is a vendor selling AI-agent tooling to other companies, not a case study of AI-native self-operation.
