Market Opportunities
While we don’t expect to be Zoom or Slack, I think it’s important for us to understand the market size of a well-run global SaaS business in the online collaboration space.
Zoom
Zoom doesn’t report active user numbers, but their revenue in 2020 Q1 is $328.2 million, and their mobile app is estimated to have 173 million monthly active users.

Their 2021 revenue is forecast to be $1.78 billion.
Slack
Slack reported $201.7 million in revenue this quarter, with 122,000 paying customers (some customers have hundreds of thousands of users). If I remember correctly, they have about 13 million users and about half of them are associated with a paid account.
Meet.coop
This is where we are now.
I’d say we have plenty of room to grow the market opportunity will easily support our team’s livelihoods if we do this right.
You may have noticed that in our new offerings, we put our hourly rate as £60 per hour. This is inline with the external hourly rate of many of our members, and we propose to use this in translating hours to a monetary value when quoting customers. This is the rate we quote, and includes operational costs, so it’s not the same as the rate we are paid.
