Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies General Thryv Holdings, Inc. (“ Thryv ” or the “ Company ”) provides small-to-medium sized businesses (“ SMBs ”) with print and digital marketing services and Software as a Service (“ SaaS ”) business management tools. The Company owns and operates Print Yellow Pages (“ PYP ”) and Internet Yellow Pages (“ IYP ”) and provides a comprehensive offering of digital marketing services such as search engine marketing (“ SEM ”), and other digital media services, including online display advertising, and search engine optimization (“ SEO ”) tools. In addition, through the Thryv® platform, the Company is a provider of SaaS business management tools designed for SMBs. On March 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Sensis Holding Limited (“ Thryv Australia ”), a provider of marketing solutions serving SMBs in Australia . As of January 1, 2021, the Company began reporting based on three reportable segments: • Marking Services, which includes the Company's print and digital solutions businesses; • SaaS which includes the Company's flagship SMB end-to-end customer experience platform; and • Thryv International, which is comprised of the Thryv Australia business, Australia's leading provider of marketing solutions serving SMBs. The corresponding current and prior period segment disclosures have been recast to reflect the current segment presentation. See Note 15, Segment Information . Basis of Presentation The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“ U.S. GAAP ”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the complete financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Thryv Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items and accruals, necessary for the fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements . The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited annual financial statements. The consolidated results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2020. Gross Profit Change The Company has revised the format of its consolidated statements of operations since the issuance of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (our “2020 Form 10-K”) in order to provide better insight into the Company's results of operations and to align its presentation to certain industry competitors. As a result, a Gross profit subtotal line item was added within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Additionally, the Company reclassified Depreciation and amortization from a single line item in its consolidated statements of operations to be reflected as a component of Gross profit, Sales and marketing expense, and General and administrative expense. The following summarizes the changes made to the Company's consolidated statements of operations for three and nine months ended September 30, 2020: Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 (in thousands) As Reported Adjustments As Adjusted Cost of services $ 87,347 $ 18,097 $ 105,444 Sales and marketing 60,775 12,531 73,306 General and administrative 34,176 4,826 39,002 Impairment charges 1,184 — 1,184 Depreciation and amortization 35,454 (35,454) — Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 (in thousands) As Reported Adjustments As Adjusted Cost of services $ 278,941 $ 55,084 $ 334,025 Sales and marketing 201,939 39,764 241,703 General and administrative 116,723 16,035 132,758 Impairment charges 19,414 — 19,414 Depreciation and amortization 110,883 (110,883) — Reverse Stock Split The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect a 1-for-1.8 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, which became effective on August 26, 2020. All share and per share data for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retrospectively, where applicable, to reflect the reverse stock split. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. The results of those estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities. Examples of reported amounts that rely on significant estimates include revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, capitalized costs to obtain a contract, certain amounts relating to the accounting for income taxes, including valuation allowance, indemnification asset, stock-based compensation expense, operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, accrued service credits, and net pension obligation. Significant estimates are also used in determining the recoverability and fair value of fixed assets and capitalized software, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and intangible assets. Due to the novel strain of coronavirus, commonly referred to as COVID-19 (“ COVID-19 ”) and the uncertainty of the extent of the impacts related thereto, certain estimates and assumptions may require increased judgment. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change in future periods. It is difficult to predict what the ongoing impact of the pandemic will be on future periods. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Except for the addition of restricted cash and foreign currency to the Company’s significant accounting policies and the change related to income taxes, as described below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the significant accounting policies included in the Company's 2020 Form 10-K. Restricted Cash The following table presents a reconciliation of Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Company's consolidated balance sheets to the amount shown in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: (in thousands) September 30, 2021 September 30, 2020 December 31, 2020 Cash and cash equivalents $ 10,374 $ 1,771 $ 2,406 Restricted cash, included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets 2,282 — — Total Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 12,656 $ 1,771 $ 2,406 Impairment Charges In June 2020, the Company announced its plans to become a “Remote First” company, meaning that the majority of the workforce will continue to operate in a remote working environment indefinitely. As a result, the Company closed certain office buildings, including most of the space at the corporate headquarters in Dallas. The Company kept certain office buildings open to house essential employees who cannot perform their duties remotely, such as employees who work in the data centers in Dallas and Virginia. Approximately $16.4 million and $1.8 million of the June 2020 impairment charges related to becoming a “Remote First” company were recorded in the Marketing Services and SaaS segments, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded operating lease right-of-use assets impairment charges of $16.5 million and fixed assets impairment charges of $2.9 million due to the Company's decision to operate in a "Remote First" working environment and consolidate operations at certain locations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded operating lease right-of-use assets impairment charges of $3.6 million due to the Company's decision to operate in a “Remote First” working environment. These impairment charges were recorded in the Thryv International segment. No impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2021. In addition, in July 2020, the Company recorded operating lease right-of use assets impairment charges of $1.2 million related to consolidating operations at certain locations. Approximately $1.0 million and $0.2 million of these impairment charges were recorded in the Marketing Services and SaaS segments, respectively. These operating lease right-of-use assets were remeasured at fair value based upon the discounted cash flows of estimated sublease income using market participant assumptions. These fair value measurements are considered Level 3, as defined in Note 4, Fair Value Measurements . Foreign Currency The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operating subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Income and expense accounts are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates during the period.

Acquisitions | Acquisitions Thryv Australia Acquisition On March 1, 2021 (the “ Acquisition Date ”), Thryv Australia Holdings Pty Ltd (formerly Thryv Australia Pty Ltd) (“ Buyer ”), an Australian proprietary limited company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Thryv International Holding LLC, a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of (i) Sunshine NewCo Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary limited company, and its subsidiaries, and (ii) Sensis Holding Limited (“ Thryv Australia ”), a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Thryv Australia Acquisition ”). The Thryv Australia Acquisition expanded the Company's market share with a broader geographical footprint. Additionally, the Thryv Australia Acquisition provided the Company with a significant increase in clients. Thryv Australia is a provider of marketing solutions serving SMBs in Australia. Control was obtained by means of acquiring all the voting interests. In connection with the Thryv Australia Acquisition, the Company paid consideration of approximately $216.2 million in cash, subject to customary closing adjustments, financed by a New Term Loan (as defined in Note 8, Debt Obligations ) that was entered into on the Acquisition Date. All acquisition-related costs, amounting t o $8.7 million, were expensed as incurred by the Company and no portion of these costs are included in consideration transferred. These costs were presented within General and administrative expense i n the Company's consolidated statement of operations . Additionally, as part of the effort to fund the Thryv Australia Acquisition, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $4.2 million related to a New Term Loan, of which $2.5 million was capitalized and is being amortized using the effective interest method. See Note 8, Debt Obligations . The Company accounted for the Thryv Australia Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations ( “ ASC 805 ” ) . This requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value. With the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, the Company determined, using Level 3 inputs (see Note 4, Fair Value Measurements ), the fair value of certain assets and liabilities, including fixed assets, intangible assets, and contract liabilities, by applying a combination of the income approach and the cost approach. Specific to intangible assets, client relationships were valued using a combination of the income and excess earnings approach, whereas trade names were valued using a relief of royalty method. The fair values of fixed assets, intangible assets and other assets acquired and liabilities assumed, have been prepared on a preliminary basis with information currently available and are subject to change. Management is still reviewing the characteristics and assumptions related to Thryv Australia’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary purchase price allocation is expected to be finalized within 12 months after the Acquisition Date. The following table summarizes the consideration transferred and the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition Date: (in thousands) Total cash consideration $ 216,164 Total purchase consideration, as allocated below: $ 216,164 Cash and cash equivalents $ 40,794 Accounts receivable and other current assets 88,529 Other assets 10,426 Fixed assets and capitalized software 40,957 Intangible assets: Client relationships (estimated useful life of 3.5 years) 101,839 Trademarks (estimated useful life of 3.5 years) 24,877 Accounts payable (31,163) Accrued liabilities (40,713) Contract liabilities (27,075) Other current liabilities (6,733) Deferred tax liabilities (42,121) Other liabilities (15,505) Total identifiable net assets $ 144,113 Goodwill 72,051 Total net assets acquired $ 216,164 The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. The recognized goodwill of $72.1 million was primarily related to the benefits expected from the Thryv Australia Acquisition and was allocated to the Thryv International segment. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes. The Thryv Australia Acquisition contributed $101.6 million in revenue and $28.6 million in net loss since the Acquisition Date. Pro Forma Results The pro forma combined financial information presented below was derived from historical financial records of Thryv and Thryv Australia and presents the operating results of the combined Company, as if the Thryv Australia Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2020. The pro forma data gives effect to historical operating results with adjustments to interest expense, amortization and depreciation expense and related tax effects. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations that would have been realized had the Thryv Australia Acquisition been completed as of January 1, 2020, nor is it meant to be indicative of future results of operations that the combined entity will experience: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (in thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Revenue $ 297,290 $ 271,192 $ 937,204 $ 998,994 Net income (loss) 37,440 (9,566) 135,671 28,158 |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition The Company has determined that each of its print and digital marketing services and SaaS business management tools services is distinct and represents a separate performance obligation. The client can benefit from each service on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the client. Services are separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Control over the Company’s print services transfers to the client upon delivery of the published directories containing their advertisements to the intended market(s). Therefore, revenue associated with print services is recognized at a point in time upon delivery to the intended market(s). SaaS and digital services are recognized using the series guidance. Under the series guidance, the Company's obligation to provide services is the same for each day under the contract, and therefore represents a single performance obligation. Revenue associated with SaaS and digital services is recognized over time using an output method to measure the progress toward satisfying a performance obligation. Disaggregation of Revenue The Company presents disaggregated revenue based on the type of service within its segment footnote. See Note 15, Segment Information . Contract Assets and Liabilities The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of billing to the Company’s clients. These timing differences result in receivables, contract assets, or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) as disclosed on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets represent the Company's right to consideration when revenue recognized exceeds the receivable from the client because the consideration allocated to fulfilled performance obligations exceeds the Company’s right to payment, and the right to payment is subject to more than the passage of time. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and revenue deferrals resulting from the allocation of the consideration to performance obligations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $4.7 million and $14.2 million, respectively, that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2020 . For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized revenue of $6.2 million and $18.5 million, respectively, that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2019. Pandemic Credits During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized pandemic credits of $0.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, provided to customers most impacted by COVID-19. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized pandemic credits o f $7.8 million |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value: Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions incorporated into valuation techniques. These valuations require significant judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. When there is more than one input at different levels within the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires substantial judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are inherently difficult to estimate. Changes to these inputs can have a significant impact on fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs are based on one or more of the following valuation techniques: market approach, income approach or cost approach. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels at the end of each reporting period. Other than the value of the indemnification asset described below, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The Company’s non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, fixed assets, capitalized software and operating lease right-of-use assets are adjusted to fair value when the net book values of the assets exceed their respective fair values, resulting in an impairment charge. Such fair value measurements are predominantly based on Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Indemnification Asset On June 30, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of YP Holdings, Inc. (the “ YP Acquisition ”). As further discussed in Note 13, Contingent Liabilities , as part of the YP Acquisition agreement, the Company is indemnified for an uncertain tax position for up to the fair value of 1.8 million shares held in escrow, subject to certain contract limitations (the “indemnification asset” ) . Due to an increase in the Company’s common stock share price as of September 30, 2021 , the number of shares expected to be returned by seller is 0.9 million , which represents the number of shares required to satisfy the uncertain tax position less $8.0 million. Prior to September 30, 2020, the fair value of the Company's indemnification asset was measured and recorded in the consolidated balance sheets using Level 3 inputs because it was valued based on unobservable inputs and other estimation techniques due to the absence of quoted market prices. On September 30, 2020, the fair value of the Company’s indemnification asset was based on the THRY Nasdaq per share price. Accordingly, the indemnification asset was transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company values its indemnification asset utilizing the fair value of its common stock. The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company’s Level 3 indemnification asset measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and 2020 : (in thousands) September 30, 2021 September 30, 2020 Balance as of January 1, $ — $ 29,789 Change in fair value — (3,878) Balance as of September 30 $ — $ 25,911 As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of the Company's Level 1 indemnification asset was $25.6 million and $24.3 million, respectively. A gain of $0.4 million and $1.2 million from the change in fair value of the Company’s Level 1 indemnification asset during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, was recorded in General and administrative expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The loss of $0.5 million and $3.9 million from the change in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 indemnification asset during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, was recorded in General and administrative expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Benefit Plan Assets The fair value of benefit plan assets is measured and recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets using Level 2 inputs. See Note 9, Pensions . Liability-classified Stock-based Compensation At September 30, 2020, the fair value associated with the Company's liability-classified stock-based compensation awards totaled $47.9 million, of which $37.7 million was vested. The fair value of each stock option award and its subsequent period-over-period remeasurement, in the case of liability-classified stock-based compensation awards, is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model using Level 3 inputs. The decrease in value of the vested portion of the liability-classified stock-based compensation awards at September 30, 2020 was primarily associated with a decrease in the Company's share fair value . The Company did not have liability-classified stock-based compensation as of September 30, 2021. The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company’s stock option liability measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and 2020: (in thousands) 2021 2020 Balance as of January 1 (1) $ — $ 43,026 Settlement of stock options — (896) Exercise of stock options — (235) Change in fair value — (9,656) Amortization of grant date fair value — 5,422 Balance as of September 30 $ — $ 37,661 (1) As of October 1, 2020, based on the Company’s intention and ability to equity-settle upon exercise, these stock options were classified as equity awards, and the liability associated with stock-based compensation award was reclassified to Additional paid-in capital. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company considers the carrying amounts of cash, trade receivables, and accounts payable to approximate fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization or payment. Additionally, the Company considers the carrying amounts of its ABL Facility (as defined in Note 8, Debt Obligations ) and financing obligations to approximate their respective fair values due to their short-term nature and approximation of interest rates to market rates. These fair value measurements are considered Level 2. See Note 8, Debt Obligations . The New Term Loan and the Senior Term Loan (as defined in Note 8, Debt Obligations ) are carried at amortized cost; however, the Company estimates the fair value of each term loan for disclosure purposes. The fair value of the New Term Loan and the Senior Term Loan is determined based on quoted prices that are observable in the market place and are classified as Level 2 measurements. See Note 8, Debt Obligations . The following table sets forth the carrying amount and fair value of the New Term Loan and Senior Term Loan: September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 (in thousands) Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value New Term Loan, net $ 556,224 $ 563,176 $ — $ — Senior Term Loan, net — — 449,165 441,742 |

Term Loan On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a new term loan credit agreement (the “ New Term Loan ”). The proceeds of the New Term Loan were used to finance the Thryv Australia Acquisition, refinance in full the Company's existing term loan facility (the “ Senior Term Loan ”), and pay fees and expenses related to the Thryv Australia Acquisition and related financing. The New Term Loan established a senior secured term loan facility (the “ Term Loan Facility ”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $700.0 million, of which 38.4% was held by related parties who are equity holders of the Company, as of March 1, 2021. The Term Loan Facility matures on March 1, 2026 and borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, LIBOR or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 8.50% (for LIBOR loans) and (ii) 7.50% (for base rate loans). The Term Loan Facility requires mandatory amortization payments equal to $17.5 million per fiscal quarter . The net proceeds from the New Term Loan of $674.9 million (net of original issue discount costs of $21.0 million and third-party fees of $4.1 million) were used to repay the remaining $449.6 million outstanding principal balance of the Senior Term Loan, accrued interest of $0.4 million, and third-party fees of $0.1 million. The Company accounted for this transaction with existing lenders as a modification. The transaction with other lenders party to only the Senior Term Loan was accounted for as an extinguishment. Accordingly, total third-party fees paid were $4.2 million, of which $1.7 million was immediately charged to General and administrative expense on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The remaining third-party fees of $2.5 million were deferred as debt issuance costs and will be amortized to interest expense, over the term of the loan, using the effective interest method. Additionally, there were unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.4 million on the existing Senior Term Loan, of which $0.3 million was written off and recorded as a loss on early extinguishment of debt on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.1 million will be deferred as debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense, over the term of the New Term Loan, using the effective interest method. The New Term Loan, which was incurred by Thryv, Inc., the Company’s operating subsidiary, is secured by all the assets of Thryv, Inc., certain of its subsidiaries and the Company, and is guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In accordance with the New Term Loan and the Senior Term Loan, the Company recorded interest expense with related parties for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 of $4.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 of $13.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively. The Company has recorded accrued interest of $3.5 million and $8.5 million, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Accrued interest is included in Other current liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021, 31.2% of the New Term Loan was held by related parties who are equity holders of the Company. Term Loan Covenants The New Term Loan contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the borrower's incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, investments, loans, advances, guarantees, acquisitions, sales of assets, sale-leaseback transactions, swap agreements, payments of dividends or distributions, payments in respect of certain indebtedness, certain affiliate transactions, restrictive amendments to agreements, changes in business, amendments of certain material documents, capital expenditures, mergers, consolidations and liquidations, and use of the proceeds. Additionally, the Company is required to maintain compliance with a Total Net Leverage Ratio, calculated as Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA, which shall not be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. As of September 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its New Term Loan covenants. The Company also expects to be in compliance with these covenants for the next twelve months. ABL Facility On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to amend (the “ ABL Amendment ”) the June 30, 2017 ABL Facility (the “ ABL Facility ”). The ABL Amendment was entered into in order to permit the term loan refinancing, the Thryv Australia Acquisition and make certain other changes to the ABL credit agreement, including, among others: • revise the maximum revolver amount to $175.0 million; • reduce the interest rate per annum to (i) 3-month LIBOR plus 3.00% for LIBOR loans and (ii) base rate plus 2.00% for base rate loans; • reduce the commitment fee on undrawn amounts under the ABL Facility to 0.375%; • extend the maturity date of the ABL Facility to the earlier of March 1, 2026 and 91 days prior to the stated maturity date of the Term Loan Facility; • add the Australian subsidiaries acquired pursuant to the Thryv Australia Acquisition as borrowers and guarantors, and establish an Australian borrowing base; and • make certain other conforming changes consistent with the New Term Loan agreement. The Company accounted for this transaction as a modification of the ABL Facility. Accordingly, the existing unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.4 million, as well as additional third-party fees and lender fees of $0.9 million associated with the latest ABL Amendment, will be deferred and amortized over the new term of the ABL Facility. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had debt issuance costs with a remaining balance of $2.9 million and $2.5 million, respectively. These debt issuance costs are included in Other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had borrowing capacity of $92.1 million under the ABL Facility. ABL Facility Covenants The ABL Facility contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the borrower's incurrence of additional indebtedness liens, investments, loans, advances, guarantees, acquisitions, disposals of assets, payments of certain indebtedness, certain affiliate transactions, changes in fiscal year or accounting methods, issuance or sale of equity instruments, mergers, liquidations and consolidations, use of proceeds, maintenance of certain deposit accounts, compliance with certain ERISA requirements and compliance with certain Australian tax requirements. The Company is required to maintain compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio that must exceed a ratio of 1.00. The fixed charge coverage ratio is defined as, with respect to any fiscal period determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the ABL credit agreement for such period minus capital expenditures incurred during such period, to (b) fixed charges. Fixed charges is defined as, with respect to any fiscal period determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, the sum, without duplication, of (a) consolidated interest expense accrued (other than amortization of debt issuance costs, and other non-cash interest expense) during such period, (b) scheduled principal payments in respect of indebtedness paid during such period, (c) all federal, state, and local income taxes accrued during such period, (d) all management, consulting, monitoring, and advisory fees paid to certain individuals or their affiliates during such period, and (e) all restricted payments paid during such period (whether in cash or other property, other than common equity interest). The Company is also required to maintain excess availability of at least $14.0 million, and U.S. excess availability of $10.0 million, in each case, at all times. As of September 30, 2021 , the Company was in compliance with its ABL Facility covenants. The Company also expects to be in compliance with these covenants for the next twelve months. Leaseback Obligations As part of the YP Acquisition on June 30, 2017, the Company assumed certain obligations including a failed sale-leaseback liability associated with land and a building in Tucker, Georgia. In conjunction with this financing liability, the fair value of the land and building was included as a part of the total tangible assets acquired in the acquisition. A certain amount of this liability consists of a non-cash residual value at termination of the lease, which on this date will be written off against the remaining carrying value of the land and building, with any amount remaining recorded as a gain on termination of the lease contract. In June 2021, the Company made a $10.2 million cash payment to terminate the lease, which is recorded in Other in Cash flows from financing activities on the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows. As of September 30, 2021, the lease termination resulted in the write-off of $48.1 million in net carrying value of assets under leaseback obligation and $55.2 million in leaseback obligations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a $3.1 million l oss on the termination of leaseback obligations was recorded in Other expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The following table sets forth the components of the Company's total leaseback obligations as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 : (in thousands) September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Non-cash residual value of Tucker, Georgia lease $ — $ 54,676 Future maturities associated with the Tucker, Georgia failed — 862 Total leaseback obligations $ — $ 55,538 |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Pensions | Pensions The Company maintains pension obligations associated with non-contributory defined benefit pension plans that are currently frozen and incur no additional service costs. The Company immediately recognizes actuarial gains and losses in its operating results in the year in which the gains and losses occur. The Company estimates the interest cost component of net periodic pension cost by utilizing a full yield curve approach and applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligations of the relevant projected cash flows. This method provides a more precise measurement of interest costs by improving the correlation between projected cash flows to the corresponding spot yield curve rates. Net Periodic Pension Cost The following table details the other components of net periodic pension cost for the Company's pension plans: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (in thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Interest cost $ 2,617 $ 3,729 $ 7,851 $ 12,162 Expected return on assets (2,890) (4,001) (8,670) (12,060) Settlement (gain)/loss — 986 (15) 1,010 Remeasurement (gain)/loss — 29,461 (164) 30,200 Net periodic pension (benefit) cost $ (273) $ 30,175 $ (998) $ 31,312 Since all pension plans are frozen and no employees accrue future pension benefits under any of the pension plans, the rate of compensation increase assumption is no longer needed. The Company determines the weighted-average discount rate by applying a yield curve comprised of the yields on several hundred high-quality, fixed income corporate bonds available on the measurement date to expected future benefit cash flows. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company made cash contributions of $5.0 million and $20.0 million to the qualified plans and contributions and associated payments of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to the non-qualified plans. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company made cash contributions of $9.9 million and $25.7 million to the qualified plans, and contributions and associated payments of $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, to the non-qualified plans. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation and Stockholders' Equity | Stock-Based Compensation and Stockholders' Equity Stock Options During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 333,025 shares of common stock to employees upon the exercise of options previously granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan at exercise prices ranging from $3.68 to $13.82 per share. Stock-based compensation expense recognized for stock option awards was $1.6 million and $4.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to stock-based compensation expense $1.3 million and benefit of $4.2 million recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ( “ESPP” ) was approved by the Company's board of directors on September 10, 2020 and became effective on September 23, 2020. Under the ESPP, eligible employees may purchase a limited number of shares of our common stock at the lesser of 85% of the market value at the beginning of the offering period or 85% of the market value at the end of the offering period. The ESPP is intended to enable eligible employees to use payroll deductions to purchase shares of stock in offerings under the plan, and thereby acquire an interest in the Company. The maximum aggregate number of shares of stock available for purchase under the plan by eligible employees is 2,000,000 shares. A total of 149,865 shares were issued through the ESPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. No shares were issued through the ESPP during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The stock-based compensation expense recognized for the ESPP was $0.8 million and $1.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Stock-Based Compensation Expense The following table sets forth stock-based compensation expense (benefit), including the effects of gains and losses from changes in fair value during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 , recognized by the Company in the following line items in the Company's consolidated statements of operations during the periods presented: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (in thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Cost of services $ 156 $ 70 $ 320 $ (176) Sales and marketing 1,060 349 2,686 30 General and administrative 1,124 870 3,226 (4,049) Stock-based compensation expense (benefit) $ 2,340 $ 1,289 $ 6,232 $ (4,195) Stock Warrants As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had 9.4 million and 10.5 million fully vested outstanding warrants, respectively. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the holders of such warrants are entitled to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 5.2 million shares and 5.8 million shares, respectively, of common stock. Warrants can be exercised at a strike price of $24.39 per common share. The warrants were issued in 2016 upon the Company's emergence from its pre-packaged bankruptcy. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, 15,425 and 1,026,649 warrants, respectively, were exercised. No warrants were exercised during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. These warrants expire on August 15, 2023. Proceeds of $13.9 million related to the exercise of the warrants are recorded in Other in Cash flows from financing activities on the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Private Placement On August 25, 2020 the Company completed a private placement of 68,857 shares of the Company’s common stock with a per share price of $10.17.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 27.9% and 25.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company's ETR differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to our geographic mix of taxable income in various tax jurisdictions and permanent tax differences attributable to the net impact of non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions. The Company’s ETR was 99.4% and 20.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company's ETR differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the change in valuation allowance, state taxes, and discrete items. The discrete items for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were primarily attributable to a partial release of uncertain tax positions due to favorable developments with ongoing U.S. federal tax examinations. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, was $23.5 million and $23.7 million, respectively, of which up to $23.5 million, respectively, would affect the Company's effective tax rate if realized. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had $9.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively, recorded for interest in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. The Company expects to complete resolution of certain tax years with various tax authorities within the next 12 months. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that its existing gross unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by up to $21.6 million within the next 12 months, affecting the Company’s effective tax rate if realized. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Contingent Liabilities | Contingent Liabilities Litigation The Company is subject to various lawsuits and other claims in the normal course of business. In addition, from time to time, the Company receives communications from government or regulatory agencies concerning investigations or allegations of noncompliance with laws or regulations in jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company establishes reserves for the estimated losses on specific contingent liabilities for regulatory and legal actions where the Company deems a loss to be probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In other instances, losses are considered probable, but the Company is not able to make a reasonable estimate of the liability because of the uncertainties related to the outcome or the amount or range of potential loss. For these matters, disclosure is made, but no amount is reserved. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of pending regulatory and legal matters in future periods will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets or cash flows. Section 199 and Research and Development Tax Case: Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code” ) provides for deductions for manufacturing performed in the U.S. The Internal Revenue Service (“ IRS ”) has taken the position that directory providers are not entitled to take advantage of the deductions because printing vendors are already taking deductions and only one taxpayer can claim the deduction. The Tax Code also grants tax credits related to research and development expenditures. The IRS also takes the position that the expenditures have not been sufficiently documented to be eligible for the tax credit. The Company disagrees with these positions. The IRS has challenged the Company's positions. With respect to the tax years 2012 through June 2015 for the YP LLC partnership, the IRS sent 90-day notices to DexYP on August 29, 2018. In response, the Company filed three petitions (in the names of various related partners) in U.S. Tax Court, and the IRS filed answers to those petitions. The three cases were consolidated by the court and were referred back to IRS Administrative Appeals for settlement negotiations, during which time the litigation was suspended. The appeals conference for YP will likely occur during the three months ended December 31, 2021. In advance of the IRS Appeals conference, the parties reached an agreement regarding additional research and development tax credits for the tax years at issue whereby the IRS will allow more tax credits than were originally claimed on the tax returns. With respect to the tax year from July to December 2015 for the Print Media LLC partnership, the Company was recently unsuccessful in its attempt to negotiate a settlement with IRS Appeals, and the IRS issued a 90-day notice to the Company. The Company filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to challenge the IRS denial. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has reserved approximately $33.1 million and $31.9 million, respectively, in connection with the 199 disallowance and less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to the research and development tax credit disallowance. The increase in the reserve balance was primarily attributable to additional interest accrued during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Pursuant to the YP Acquisition agreement, the Company is entitled to (i) a dollar-for-dollar indemnification for the research and development tax liability, and (ii) a dollar-for-dollar indemnification for the 199-tax liability after the Company pays the first $8.0 million in liability. The indemnification asset, however, is subject to a provision in the YP Acquisition agreement that limits the seller’s liability. The balance of the indemnification asset is $25.6 million and $24.3 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Other Texas Sales, Excise, and Use Tax Audit: We conduct operations in many tax jurisdictions. In many of these jurisdictions, non-income-based taxes, such as sales and use tax and other indirect taxes, are assessed on our operations. Although we are diligent in collecting and remitting such taxes, there is uncertainty as to how each taxing jurisdiction will ultimately classify the Company's digital products and services for sales and use tax purposes. On June 24, 2020, the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued a notice to the Company assigning a routine audit of the Company's sales, excise, and use tax account for the audit period covering March 1, 2017 through July 31, 2020. On August 31, 2021, the Company received the final Texas Notification of Audit Results with an assessment of less than $0.1 million, including interest. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reversed the $2.6 million reserve existing on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 for the total combined exposure for the periods covered under the audit examination. New York Sales, Excise, and Use Tax Audit: On August 19, 2020, the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance issued a notice to the Company assigning a routine audit of the Company's sales, excise, and use tax account for the audit period covering March 1, 2017 through May 31, 2020. The Company has reserved $3.0 million for the total combined exposure for the respective period, which is accrued on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 . |

Segment Information | Segment Information As a result of the Thryv Australia Acquisition, we reviewed our segment reporting based on the information used by the Chief Executive Officer, who is also the chief operating decision maker (“ CODM ”), to assess performance and allocate resources subsequent to the acquisition. As a result of this review, we determined that the Company manages operations using three operating segments which are also its reportable segments: (1) Marketing Services, (2) SaaS, and (3) Thryv International. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company adjusted its methodology of classifying certain revenue between products of its SaaS segment. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020 reflect the current methodology.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“ U.S. GAAP ”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the complete financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Thryv Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items and accruals, necessary for the fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements . The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited annual financial statements. The consolidated results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2020. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. The results of those estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities. Examples of reported amounts that rely on significant estimates include revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, capitalized costs to obtain a contract, certain amounts relating to the accounting for income taxes, including valuation allowance, indemnification asset, stock-based compensation expense, operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, accrued service credits, and net pension obligation. Significant estimates are also used in determining the recoverability and fair value of fixed assets and capitalized software, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and intangible assets. Due to the novel strain of coronavirus, commonly referred to as COVID-19 (“ COVID-19 ”) and the uncertainty of the extent of the impacts related thereto, certain estimates and assumptions may require increased judgment. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, these estimates may change in future periods. It is difficult to predict what the ongoing impact of the pandemic will be on future periods. |

Impairment Charges | Impairment Charges In June 2020, the Company announced its plans to become a “Remote First” company, meaning that the majority of the workforce will continue to operate in a remote working environment indefinitely. As a result, the Company closed certain office buildings, including most of the space at the corporate headquarters in Dallas. The Company kept certain office buildings open to house essential employees who cannot perform their duties remotely, such as employees who work in the data centers in Dallas and Virginia.
