**Chegg. $14.7 billion → $114 million. 39 months.** ☠️
The first company officially killed by AI. ⚡
Here's how fast it happened — 💣
November 2022 — ChatGPT launches.
May 2023 — Chegg CEO admits it's destroying their business.
Same day — stock crashes 48%. 🎯
Then the slow bleed —
Subscribers: 5M → under 3M. 📉
Revenue: down 49% by Q4 2025.
Staff: fired 67% in two rounds.
US and Canada offices: shut down completely. 🌍
A decade of work. 79 million solutions.
$20/month subscription.
Built over 10 years. ☠️
ChatGPT replaced it in 5 months.
For free.
With explanations. 💣
This isn't disruption.
This is elimination. 🎯
And Chegg isn't alone.
It's just the first to officially die.
Every business built on
information access and retrieval —
is watching this story nervously. 🌍
Lawyers. Tutors. Researchers.
Translators. Analysts.
AI doesn't charge $20/month.
It doesn't charge anything. 📉
Chegg was the warning shot.
