Чем занимается Upflow

Upflow builds the reference cash collection platform to help B2B companies get paid faster, more predictably, and with stronger customer relationships. Today, the order-to-cash process is mission critical for businesses, yet it remains fragmented across tools, teams, and workflows. Collections, payments, and reconciliation are often manual, reactive, and disconnected from the rest of the business. Upflow brings this entire process into one system - combining data, agentic automation, collaboration, and financial services to turn receivables into a predictable and scalable engine. We serve 500+ companies across 30+ countries, including Vercel, Lattice, Productboard, and are backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, Hedosophia, Hexa, and Lorimer. With teams across the US and Europe, we’re building a category-defining company at the intersection of finance, payments, and AI. To learn more about what we do, visit upflow.io. For a behind-the-scenes look at how we work as a team, head to the Inside Upflow section of our blog at upflow.io/blog/inside-upflow.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Cash collection tech for B2B businesses

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

We built a platform that combines collections, payments, and reconciliation into one system for B2B companies. Our product helps finance teams get paid faster by automating and unifying the order-to-cash process, which is usually disjointed across multiple tools and manual workflows.

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

We live in New York, NY, and Upflow is based there with additional teams in Europe.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York is a major hub for fintech and payments, giving us access to customers and talent. Having teams in both the US and Europe lets us cover multiple markets where our customers operate.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Upflow в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Upflow (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Upflow представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
