"We are incredibly fortunate to have experienced unprecedented growth over the 
last year," said Karl Sun, co-founder and CEO at Lucid. "The need for visual 
collaboration is increasing as companies seek out sustainable, efficient 
practices that will help hybrid teams over the long term. Our visual

excited for the opportunity ahead as visual collaboration becomes an even more 
important part of how teams in every department, and across every industry, get 
work done."

The company continues to experience impressive growth. Lucid surpassed $100

up over 100% from the prior year. Lucid has also experienced tremendous success 
internationally, with a third of its revenue coming from outside the United 
States.

October 2020, has experienced incredible market receptivity and growth. Since 
its launch, Lucidspark has amassed more than one million users, and is quickly 
becoming a staple in companies across a broad array of industries, including 
customers like Amazon, Sonos, Jaguar Land Rover and Hubspot.

"Lucid's whiteboarding and diagramming capabilities are unrivaled. The ability 
to simply ideate, design, and communicate the most complex processes while 
collaborating in real time fundamentally transforms the way that modern 
organizations work." said Deepak Ravichandran, general partner at Alkeon 
Capital. "Their impressive growth over the past year is a testament to their 
category leadership in the broader collaboration space, and we're excited to 
work with the Lucid team through the next phase of their journey."

Lucid's visual collaboration suite continues to power some of the biggest names 
in business, including Google, GE, NBC Universal and T-Mobile and 99% of the 
Fortune 500. The suite, which includes the recently launched virtual whiteboard 
application Lucidspark and leading intelligent diagramming application 
Lucidchart, provides users with an end-to-end experience that helps teams see 
and build the future.
