We're a team of builders, dreamers, and payment nerds on a mission to empower the next generation of digital businesses.
Our purpose
Mission
We empower diverse businesses to collaborate effortlessly, leveraging cutting-edge financial infrastructure to foster collective innovation and prosperity. No more complex setups, no more enterprise pricing.
Vision
To create global financial and coordination infrastructure for the next wave of digital businesses. A world where anyone can build, sell, and grow without barriers.
What drives us
Builder First
We build for people who build. Every decision starts with the indie hacker, the micro-SaaS founder, the solo creator.
Radically Simple
No enterprise pricing, no hidden fees, no complex setups. If it's not simple, we haven't finished building it.
Global by Default
Payments, taxes, compliance — handled everywhere. We believe geography shouldn't limit what you can build.
