Rezolve Ai Celebrates One Year Anniversary of Nasdaq Listing with Explosive Growth, $70M+ ARR, and Global Expansion

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rezolve Ai (NASDAQ: RZLV), the company reinventing retail through real-time AI-driven consumer engagement, today celebrates a game-changing first year as a public company capping 12 months of growth, major partnerships, and global scale. Since listing on NASDAQ on August 16, 2024, Rezolve Ai has delivered one of the fastest go-to-market trajectories in retail AI history.

“Our mission to reinvent commerce through AI is no longer a vision, it’s a reality,” said Daniel M. Wagner, Founder and CEO. “From zero to $70 million in ARR, blue-chip customers across three continents, and foundational partnerships with Microsoft and Google, Rezolve is proving that intelligent commerce isn’t just the future, it’s here now.”

One Year of Breakthrough Momentum:

  • $70M ARR, with 50+ major enterprise customers, including a landmark $9.8M per year deal with Liverpool Mexico
  • Strategic Go-to-Market alliances with Microsoft and Google, accelerating enterprise adoption and market reach
  • Pioneering crypto payments: enabling consumers to pay with any cryptocurrency at retailers worldwide in partnership with Tether
  • Established Global Professional Services Division, led by former Tata Group CTO Sauvik Banerjjee, to accelerate enterprise onboarding and AI integration
  • $89.9M debt-to-equity conversion, plus $80M+ in new funding from Berenberg, Citadel Global Equities and others
  • Wall Street recognition: now covered by six equity analysts and included in the Russell 2000® and 3000® Indices.

The Road Ahead
With a powerful product suite led by Brain Commerce and Brain Checkout, and the proprietary brainpowa LLM, Rezolve is scaling its global footprint and unlocking a generational opportunity: redefining how consumers connect, shop, and buy in a $30 trillion market.

“This is just the beginning,” continued Wagner. “We’ve laid the foundation. Now we’re building the future of AI-powered commerce smarter, faster, and more personalized than ever.”
