WildApricot was established in 2001 in Toronto. The company was co-founded by Dmitry Buterin and a small team of entrepreneurs who saw a need for easier online management of member-based organizations. The first version of the software launched in 2006 and quickly gained popularity for its user-friendly approach. Over the years, WildApricot has experienced steady growth, expanding its reach to tens of thousands of organizations and millions of members worldwide. By late 2022, it was serving more than 32,000 organizations and supporting over 10 million active members.
WildApricot operated independently and was privately held until its acquisition. The company’s major financial milestone was its acquisition by Personify, a Texas-based provider of constituent management software, in 2017. While the financial details of the acquisition were not publicly disclosed, industry estimates place WildApricot’s annual revenue between $5 million and $25 million, with a workforce of approximately 100 to 250 employees. The acquisition allowed WildApricot to accelerate its growth and expand its product offerings.
WildApricot’s platform is known for its comprehensive and easy-to-use features, which include:
The acquisition by Personify in 2017 marked a significant milestone in WildApricot’s history, greatly expanding its resources and market reach.

These enhancements have broadened the platform’s appeal and allowed it to serve larger and more diverse organizations.
