DuckDuckGo was founded in 2008 by Gabriel Weinberg. The company has not publicly endorsed plans to participate in an IPO.

DuckDuckGo is a search engine that differs from other platforms in that it does not track users' activity and presents the same search results to all users, regardless of previous web activity. The company leverages existing web crawlers from other search tools, not from Google. Due to a strong user base, DuckDuckGo has been able to operate primarily on direct revenue, yet has raised more than $170 million in venture capital funding from investors including Omers Ventures, Thrive Capital, Impact America Fund, HOF Capital, and GP Bullhound. The company has not released recent valuation figures.

These comments should not be interpreted to mean that the company is formally pursuing or foregoing an IPO.
