2023 · re-audit, as reported by Bloomberg (22 May 2025)

The 2023 figure presented to investors and creditors was about $180M a year. After a re-audit, 2023 revenue was about $45M a year. The reported figure was not supported by the audited data. Both numbers come from press reports citing people familiar with the matter, not from a published filing. We judge the number, not the person.

Old figure: from 2023 (34 months old). The business may look very different today; we show it with its date rather than as a current number.

TL;DR

Figure: ~$45M annual revenue (Annual revenue · 2023 · re-audit, as reported by Bloomberg (22 May 2025))
≈ $3,750,000/month in USD — about $45M a year, divided by 12. Not a measured month. From press reports of a re-audit, not a filing we read.
Proof level: Contradicted. The 2023 figure presented to investors and creditors, about $180M a year, was not supported by the re-audited accounts, about $45M a year. Same metric, annual revenue, same year. The presented figure was about four times the re-audited figure, above the 2× line for this label. Both numbers come from press reports citing people familiar with the matter, not from a published filing. We judge the number, not the person. A 2024 projection of $220M given to creditors, versus about $50–55M after the audit, is context only. It is not the pair compared on this page.
Our verdict (1/10, opinion): The comparison on this page is 2023 annual revenue: about $180M presented to investors and creditors, and about $45M after a re-audit. The company entered insolvency in May 2025. This is not a model to copy.

The story

Builder.ai was an AI app-building platform in London. In May 2025 it collapsed into insolvency.

For 2023, revenue was presented to investors and creditors as about $180M. After a re-audit of the accounts, 2023 revenue was about $45M. That is the same metric, annual revenue, and the same year. The presented figure was about four times the re-audited figure.

As context only, not the comparison on this page: a 2024 projection of $220M was given to creditors. After the audit, 2024 revenue was reported at about $50–55M.

Claim versus proof: the 2023 figure presented to investors and creditors was about $180M a year. After a re-audit, 2023 revenue was about $45M a year. The reported figure was not supported by the audited data. Both numbers come from press reports citing people familiar with the matter, not from a published filing. We judge the number, not the person.

Our take (opinion)

Read the date and the source before treating a large revenue figure as checked.
Ask whether a later audit states a much lower number for the same year.
