As Blink’s CEO and co-founder, I'm thrilled to share with you the incredible journey we've embarked upon in 2023. The year has been nothing short of extraordinary for Blink, and I'm excited to take you through some of the milestones we've achieved.

Our success stems from our main company focus: to help security practitioners. The security industry faces tough challenges every single day. Plus, with a shortage of skilled professionals, finding the right people to help tackle these problems is no easy feat. Security practitioners need a better way to boost their productivity and operational efficiency. That’s why we created Blink. 

In May, we introduced generative AI to the workflow creation process to create the industry's first security automation copilot – Blink Copilot. By harnessing the power of AI, security personnel can be more productive than ever before, freeing up valuable resources to focus on bigger security issues. It's clear that AI is the future of security automation, and we're excited to be leading the way.

Driving Revenue and Customer Growth

2023 has been a year of unprecedented growth for Blink Ops. We've seen our company revenue increase by a staggering 600% since the start of the year. This remarkable surge is a testament to the trust that organizations are placing in Blink's innovative solutions. It reaffirms our commitment to addressing the pressing need for a more efficient and accessible approach to security automation.

One of our proudest accomplishments this year has been the acquisition of multiple Fortune 500 customers. These are some of the most significant and influential companies in the world, and the fact that they have chosen Blink for their security automation needs is a clear validation of our capabilities. We are honored to have these giants as our clients and excited about the journey ahead as we continue to serve their needs.

Automation at Scale

As a company, we take immense pride in seeing our solutions being embraced wholeheartedly. In 2023, we've experienced an astonishing 1,200% year-over-year increase in usage. This speaks to the real-world impact our services have on our users. It signifies that Blink not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our customers.

We've always aimed to streamline security processes and empower our customers to automate repetitive tasks efficiently. The fact that our customers are automating over 1,000,000 workflows per month is a source of immense pride. It showcases our ability to deliver on our promise of enabling anyone to automate security workflows across domains. 

Expanding our Team and Partnerships

The Blink team has grown - we've doubled our headcount since the year began. This expansion of our team is a testament to our dedication to providing the best possible service. We believe that investing in our people and our resources is key to sustaining our growth and continuing to meet the ever-growing demand for security automation.

Another one of our most exciting developments in 2023 has been our invitation to be part of Microsoft's exclusive Pegasus Program. This invite-only partner program was created to empower startups that are building with Microsoft technology, and we're honored to be among the initial pilot group selected for this exclusive program.

Through the Pegasus Program, we're harnessing the power of generative AI to take security automation to new heights. This partnership is a testament to our commitment to staying at the forefront of technological advancements and ensuring that our solutions remain cutting-edge.

Looking Forward

Blink's journey in 2023 has been nothing short of extraordinary. We've been dedicated to innovation, seamless integration, and building a robust security automation copilot. We're not just meeting industry demands; we're pushing the envelope. The future looks incredibly bright for Blink, and we're excited to have you along for the ride as we continue to protect and empower businesses in this digital age. Thanks for being part of our story.
