Announcing our $25M Series A led by @sequoia . Ten months ago, we came out of stealth to rebuild the general ledger from the ground up with AI at the core. Today, we power the finance stack behind some of the fastest-growing companies like @windsurf_ai and Decagon. Why are we.

It’s time to shake the anachronism: since the ability to make calls is just one of the apps on my “phone” I’ve decided to now refer to this device as my “pocket computer” (other naming suggestions welcome!).

What started as a simple idea to make video sharing easier became a technology platform that changed the 21st century. @YouTube has transformed how we connect, create & share. Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since we @sequoia first partnered with them. @xpangler.

We remain destined to repeat the mistakes of the past! SPVs are making a come-back, where the lead investor speaks for less than 10% of the capital, yet eagerly lines up the latest set of tourist chumps who think the story will end differently this time. It's only been 3 years🤯.

I am seeing more examples of regulatory agencies rushing to impose penalties and restrictions on companies before the upcoming change in administration. Their behavior betrays their illegitimacy. Pervasive and capricious regulatory overreach is strangling the US economy.
