It turned the ADA-lawsuit epidemic into a subscription: AI widget plus human fixes, sold via web hosts to 131k sites.
Will it work? · our read
Lawsuits sell it. A real, profitable SaaS - $40M ARR, 78% margin - riding a litigation wave. But it sells a promise courts haven't blessed; if overlays lose in court, cheap SMB base churns first.

AudioEye FY2025 results (FILED) - $40.3M rev, $40M ARR, 78% margin, about 131k customersAudioEye (AEYE) revenue history - public-company revenue 2015-2025AudioEye Web Accessibility Litigation Report - 2,000+ ADA web suits H1 2025, +37% YoY (vendor data)Adrian Roselli: FTC catches up to accessiBe - critic view of overlays plus the FTC actionWP Tavern: advocates' open letter against overlays
Revenue is FILED and first-party: $40.3M FY2025, $40.0M ARR, 78% gross margin, about 131k customers, from AudioEye's Q4/FY2025 release and public filings (NASDAQ: AEYE) - verified. Lawsuit stats (2,000+ ADA web suits H1'25, +37% YoY, 78% ecommerce) come from AudioEye's own litigation report - self-interested but broadly corroborated by third-party trackers (UsableNet/Seyfarth); treat as directional. The overlay-effectiveness debate is genuine and unresolved: I present the disability-community critique (Roselli, advocate open letter) and the FTC's 2025 accessiBe action as real risk, not settled fact - and note AudioEye differs from pure overlays via human remediation. Pricing figures for AudioEye and rivals are approximate market positioning, not first-party confirmed. We never score you.
