Slicker
Recover failed payments, maximize subscription revenue
We built an AI-driven engine that automatically detects failed recurring payments, retries them intelligently, and adapts to each business's unique payment processors and customer patterns. This stops involuntary churn and recovers revenue that otherwise goes lost.
We live in London, England, and after YC we plan to base the company here as well.
London is a global fintech hub with deep access to subscription-based companies. It's where our network and early customers are, so it makes sense to stay.
