Geekflare, the independent tech publishing platform, says it is expanding into software development after reaching more than 100 million readers worldwide. The company, founded in 2015, is launching a new AI and API product suite as it shifts from being primarily a digital publisher to operating as a software-as-a-service business.

Based in London, Geekflare built its audience over a decade by publishing practical guides and tools aimed at developers, IT professionals, and business leaders.

Founder Chandan Kumar said, the move reflects what the company observed from its readership over time. “For more than 10 years, we helped people understand the tools shaping the tech industry,” he said. “By closely watching how our audience searched and worked, we saw clear gaps in the market. This shift allows us to move from explaining solutions to building them.”

Geekflare API

The first of its two products is Geekflare API which is aimed at developers who require infrastructure tools to automate repetitive tasks. The service includes APIs for extracting LLM-ready data from websites, capturing screenshots, and generating PDFs. The features are designed to support teams that need to process content or documentation at scale.

The second product, Geekflare AI, is a collaborative workspace that provides access to more than 40 AI models in a single interface. Users can interact with documents and PDFs, share prompts, and collaborate on AI-driven projects in real time.

Alongside the two product launches, Geekflare has introduced a redesigned website. that centers on the new software offerings, with new documentation sections, API playground environments, and user dashboards. Educational articles remain part of the site, although far less so.

Kumar said the company does not view the expansion as abandoning its publishing origins. “This is not a departure from our roots,” he said. “Content remains important, but our primary focus is now on building software that helps our community work faster and smarter.”
