I’ve spent the last two decades working on internet businesses focused on scale, utility, and long-term impact. Most of my work has lived at the intersection of partnerships, teams, and products designed to reach very large audiences.
Along the way, I’ve been fortunate to work with great people across five startups that ultimately led to acquisitions totaling more than $4.5 billion, including Business.com, Savings.com, Coupons.com, and Honey, which was acquired by PayPal in 2020.
A consistent theme in my career has been building free consumer products used by tens of millions of people, helping them save meaningful amounts of money while creating sustainable businesses underneath.
In 2024, we started Pie to explore a better economic model for the internet, one that puts people back in control of how advertising works for them. That work revealed a broader challenge. As AI products began to scale: many lacked native, user-aligned ways to monetize, pushing costs onto consumers.
In 2025, we launched ZeroClick to address that gap by building an ad network designed specifically for AI. This is where I’m spending most of my time today. More at zeroclick.ai.
I selectively invest in & advise for early-stage companies, including Checkmate, Locker, Phia, Kudos, and Hi-Energy. For inquiries or references, you can reach me at chris.arreguin@gmail.com.
