Alaan is an AI-powered finance platform for businesses in the Middle East. We help businesses instantly issue corporate cards for employees, control their spending, and automate workflows. Our mission is to simplify finance for businesses in the Middle East and help them prosper. We have grown rapidly and now work with over 2000 startups, mid-market, and enterprise customers across various industries, doing tens of millions of dollars in payment volume. We've been default alive since our launch in August 2022 (9x net revenue growth in 2023, 6x in 2024), and raised one of the largest Series A rounds in the history of the Middle East backed by Peak XV (formerly Sequoia India).

Modern finance platform for the Middle East

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

We built an AI-powered finance platform that lets businesses in the Middle East instantly issue corporate cards to employees, control spending, and automate financial workflows. Our product solves the mess of traditional expense management, approvals, and payments in one place tailored to regional needs.

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

We live and operate in Dubai, UAE, and the company is based there. Post-YC, we expect to stay in Dubai to keep close to our customers and market.

Explain your decision regarding location.

The Middle East is our main market and Dubai offers a growing fintech ecosystem. Being local means we can deeply understand our clients' needs and build relevant solutions faster than foreign competitors could.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular

Bu, Alaan şirketinin gerçek YC başvurusu mu?

Hayır. Y Combinator gönderilen başvuruları gizli tutar. Bu bir yeniden yapılandırmadır: gerçek YC form soruları, Alaan'in kamuya açık verilerinden (lansman notları, kurucu geçmişleri, ürün açıklaması) yanıtlanmıştır. Alaan gibi bir şirketin YC'ye kendisini nasıl sunacağını gösterir, gönderdikleri metni değil.
