Approximately $350 million of said revenue is expected to come from the recently announced paid subscriptions that allow users to access additional features. It's currently on track to hit 4 million subscribers by the end of the year.

"We saw challenges on the horizon, and hedged our bets accordingly, but still got punched in the face hard by 2022’s new economic reality ... We have decisively entered a new era, and we must adapt and overcome to succeed in this new reality," Spiegel wrote in the memo to employees.
