AI agents handling complex billing and revenue

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

We built an AI-driven billing assistant that parses complex contracts, issues invoices, and collects payments in real-time for B2B SaaS companies. It turns tedious contract billing - normally a mess of spreadsheets and delays - into an automated process that frees finance teams to focus on growth instead of chasing revenue.

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

We live and work in San Francisco, CA. After YC, we'll continue to be based here to stay close to our customers and talent.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our team is located and where most B2B SaaS finance teams we work with operate. Being local helps us understand the pain points and iterate fast.
