BlueRush Inc., a leading personalized video Software as a Service company, ‎is pleased to announce its financial results for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2021 .

“2021 was a breakthrough year on a number of fronts. We continued to see healthy growth in revenue from our SaaS business increasing by 55%, overall gross profit growing by 83%, and our gross retention rate remaining above 90%,” said Steve Taylor, CEO of BlueRush.

Mr. Taylor continued, “Probably the most compelling part of the business has been the growth in our key accounts. While we continue to secure new logo customers, we believe the growth in our existing customers is the best indicator of the value our IndiVideo technology delivers for our customers. There is no more engaging medium than video and when you add personalization, the engagement and conversion metrics become unbeatable. Our customers’ success becomes our success.”
