Account Receivables Platform for Latin American Enterprises

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

We built a platform that helps Latin American companies manage their accounts receivable more effectively. It handles payment method management, retries failed payments automatically, sends payment reminders, and alerts users when payments fail. This lets businesses recover revenue they otherwise lose and frees them to focus on their core operations.

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

We live and are based in Mexico City, CDMX, Mexico, where the company operates today and would remain after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Mexico City is the heart of Latin America's largest enterprise market where our customers are. Staying here puts us close to our users and payment ecosystem, letting us move fast and stay grounded in the real problems our customers face.
