From PartnerStack to Superwhisper
Before Superwhisper, Chudleigh helped build PartnerStack, the partner-marketing platform he co-founded as GrowSumo in 2015 (Y Combinator). AppDirect bought it in April 2026, for just over $150 million according to sources quoted by BetaKit (BetaKit).
Superwhisper began as a tool for himself. “I built superwhisper out of frustration with the native dictation capabilities of macOS,” he wrote when he posted it on Hacker News in August 2023 (Hacker News). “It was a great time to solve my own need,” he told The Globe and Mail (The Globe and Mail). Its first Black Friday sale was, in his words, “the point where I realized I could go full time on it” (X).
He has kept it bootstrapped while a better-funded rival, Wispr Flow, raised hundreds of millions. His case for Toronto: “much lower cost of living than sf, nyc, miami” and “sell in USD, spend in CAD” (X).
