The story

Founded in 2022 as an AI-native accounting platform focused on crypto/stablecoin-heavy finance teams (Polygon Labs, Thirdweb, Brale, Babylon Labs). Positioned as a modern alternative to legacy sub-ledgers, using AI agents to automate journal entries, reconciliation, and month-end close for multi-entity, multi-chain organizations. In June 2026, acquired by MoonPay to extend MoonPay's stablecoin payments infrastructure into back-office financial operations.
