Company
Flowglad
Agent payment infrastructure with controls
We built payment infrastructure specifically for companies using human agents to spend money. Our product gives those agents virtual cards and bank accounts with programmable spend policies, approvals, and hard limits, all embedded in their workflows to make spending safe and auditable. Customers can bring their own agents or use ours, but the core is controlling spend tightly while enabling real payments by people.
We live in New York, NY, and the company would be based there after YC.
We are based in New York where most of our team and early customers are located. Staying here keeps us close to the financial and agent services ecosystem we serve.
