New state laws made online notarization legal — BlueNotary bootstrapped in and let 20,000 notaries serve the demand.
Will it work? · our read
Law-built market. State laws legalized online notarization; BlueNotary bootstrapped in while the VC leader cut staff. The catch: RON is a commodity, and revenue is only an estimate.

Revenue (about $6.9M ARR, 2024) is a third-party Latka estimate with no founder interview — sourced EST, verified false. The 20,000-notary count is BlueNotary's own marketing claim. "Notaries as customers, not payroll" is our read from the pricing model plus Proof's documented layoffs, not a founder statement. Founding year (2022), Illinois HQ, bootstrapped status, and the 45-state RON count are confirmed from multiple sources. We never score you.
