Freshworks AI Fuels Revenue Growth Over Estimates
11 Feb
Summary
- Freshworks forecasts 2026 revenue exceeding $952 million.
- AI adoption is driving demand for customer support software.
- The company is gaining market share from larger competitors.

Freshworks is anticipating its 2026 annual revenue to exceed $952 million, surpassing analyst estimates. This positive forecast is underpinned by the growing demand for AI-integrated software solutions designed to automate customer support and IT services. The company's CEO, Dennis Woodside, expressed confidence that complex enterprise systems require extensive development, positioning Freshworks' established platform favorably.
Despite market concerns about AI's disruptive potential, Freshworks reports ongoing user count growth and market share gains against major competitors like ServiceNow and Salesforce. The company's licensing model, based on the number of users rather than usage, differentiates it from some newer AI products. Fourth-quarter results showed a 14% revenue increase to $222.7 million, beating expectations.
