AI agents that automate AP, procurement, and finance

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI agent platform specifically for finance teams focused on the Office of the CFO. Our product automates procurement and accounts payable workflows - from capturing invoices to running 3-way matches to pushing payments - so finance teams stop doing manual work and start focusing on governance and exceptions.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We currently live and work in San Francisco, and after YC the company will remain based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based in San Francisco because that's where we all live and it's a central fintech hub, which makes it easier to engage with early users and finance professionals.
