A new kind of power for finance teams

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

Customers include large enterprises with complex finance operations.

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

We live and base the company in San Francisco, CA, with most of the team remote across the US.
