Company profile

ProofHub, LLC is a privately held, bootstrapped software company that operates a web-based project management and team collaboration platform sold under the ProofHub name. The company's founder and CEO, Sandeep Kashyap, began building client web applications in the mid-2000s and released an early proofing tool, "ProofMini," in 2007; ProofHub itself launched in 2012, which is the date the company uses for its founding (some third-party databases list 2010 or 2011). Its corporate address is 440 N. Barranca Ave., Covina, California, with earlier profiles listing Walnut, CA. The company is independent and self-funded ("bootstrapped since day one," per its site) with no disclosed parent, acquirer, or outside funding round. PitchBook estimates roughly 50 employees; other aggregators give a 25–100 range. Revenue figures vary widely across third-party databases (roughly $1M–$50M) and no audited number is public, so no reliable size figure can be confirmed.

Products and operations. ProofHub sells SaaS subscriptions (flat-rate pricing, no per-user fees) for project management, task and Kanban board management, Gantt/timeline planning, time tracking, file sharing and versioning, online proofing, discussions, notes, group chat and reporting, with mobile apps for iOS and Android. It markets to software development, marketing, construction, professional services and other teams, and states customers in 141+ countries. It is an operating company, not a patent-holding entity, and it holds no role as a plaintiff in the tracked litigation data.

Litigation posture. The case data shows ProofHub as a pure defendant (1 case, 0 as plaintiff): Web 2.0 Technologies, LLC et al. v. ProofHub, LLC, D. Del. No. 1:23-cv-00343 (Judge Maryellen Noreika), filed March 27, 2023. The plaintiffs asserted U.S. Patent Nos. 6,845,448 and 8,117,644, covering personal-information repositories and online document collaboration. Web 2.0 Technologies is characterized as a non-practicing entity in Seyfarth Shaw's "NPE Showcase" series; per PACER records reported by PatSnap, the suit was voluntarily dismissed with prejudice in 2023. ProofHub appears to be an operating company targeted by an NPE rather than an active litigant.
