Cosa fa Payna

Payna is building the AI licensing agent for regulated companies. We automate the filings, renewals, amendments, and regulator follow ups required to get licensed and stay licensed across jurisdictions, so teams no longer have to manage compliance through spreadsheets, email threads, and expensive outside firms. Starting with financial services categories like lending, debt collection, and money transmission, Payna helps companies move faster, stay compliant, and scale without adding compliance headcount linearly.

AI Licensing Agent for Regulated Industries

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

We are building an AI licensing agent that automates the filings, renewals, amendments, and regulator follow-ups regulated companies need to stay licensed in multiple jurisdictions. Our product replaces manual compliance tasks managed via spreadsheets, email chains, and expensive external firms, starting with financial services categories like lending, debt collection, and money transmission. This helps regulated teams move faster and scale compliance without linear headcount growth.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will continue to be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the hub for financial services startups and AI innovation, making it the ideal base to build a product serving regulated finance companies. Being here keeps us close to early customers and potential partners.
