Hollingsworth turned a decade of executive-assistant ops into an AI inbox product that drafts, sorts, and takes notes.
Richard Hollingsworth is co-founder and chief executive of Fyxer, an AI email and productivity company. He co-founded it with his brother Archie Hollingsworth and technical co-founder Matt Ffrench.
Building an Assistant Agency in 2016
In 2016 the brothers built a tech-enabled executive assistant business after finding email tools still clunky, according to Fyxer. That agency produced workflow data that later trained product instincts for Fyxer.
Launching Fyxer with Matt Ffrench
Ffrench joined to help build Fyxer from hundreds of thousands of hours of assistant workflow data. Madrona’s Founded & Funded podcast later covered Fyxer’s jump from about $1 million to $10 million in annual recurring revenue in six months, per Madrona.
Personal Life
Hollingsworth works with Fyxer from the United Kingdom. Public interviews emphasize team culture and inbox overwhelm more than private hobbies.
