Former SaaS unicorns: IPOs and acquisitions
44 companies that were on this list aren't unicorns any more: 11 went public and 31 were acquired or agreed to be, the rest shut down or were last valued below $1 billion. 14 of the exits happened in 2026. The most recent first; each exit links to its source.
What is a SaaS unicorn?
A SaaS unicorn is a private software-as-a-service company valued at $1 billion or more. Aileen Lee of Cowboy Ventures coined the term in a 2013 TechCrunch article, when only 39 US software startups had reached that value. A decacorn is valued at $10 billion or more, a hectocorn at $100 billion.
A company leaves the list when it goes public, is acquired, shuts down or raises at a valuation under $1 billion. In 2026, AI changed the list fastest: 35% of today's SaaS unicorns build on AI at their core, and 71% of the 2026 newcomers do.
How this list is built
It starts from LeadWave's hand-built database of SaaS companies, where every unicorn is tagged. For each company we check whether it is still private and independent, and find its latest valuation in the company's own announcement or reputable press, with a link. Estimates and data aggregators aren't used, and companies whose latest valuation we can't source aren't listed.
"SaaS" here means software sold as a subscription or by usage, including AI applications, AI models sold by API, developer and data platforms, and payment platforms sold to businesses. Banks, lenders, crypto tokens and exchanges, hardware makers and marketplaces aren't on the list.
