Announcing our Series B fundraising this week, our Co-Founder & CEO Nicolas Dessaigne shares his thoughts on the future of search, as well as why SaaS APIs are eating the development world. Algolia's success wouldn't be possible without you, our community, and we're excited to continue our mission to connect intent with content and help you connect your users with what matters most. 

This month Algolia attended & exhibited at Twilio SIGNAL, where we met with the great Twilio community, learned about Twilio's latest announcements & features, and even co-hosted an API Hour (which can be pronounced 'happy hour' if you really stretch it) with our friends at Keen.io & Auth0. At SIGNAL, we took a different approach to giving out swag - instead of new socks or fidget cubes, for every awesome person we met on our stand, we made a $10 donation on their behalf to WomenWhoCode. 
 

Six months after our first release of Algolia for WordPress, with feedback from over 800 active applications, we released our first major update to WordPress, focusing on making it even easier for WordPress users to be successful with Algolia.
