There’s been a relatively recent swelling of $100M ARR commercial open-source businesses (Confluent, Elastic, Mongo, GitLab). The common strategy seems to be an “open core” with $$$ enterprise-level addons. Are there any examples on that scale with consumers as customers?

Wordpress? Not strictly B2C but a combination of B2B and B2C.

My understanding is that their big-$$$ revenue comes from consulting services (e.g. for NYT) rather than hosting services. Do you happen to know?

Unfortunately, I’ve got no idea on their revenue split between consulting vs hosting vs other addon products, or on the B2B vs B2C split. Sorry I can’t help you further with that!
