Our Vision

A world where every viable business can instantly access the funding they need to grow and thrive. We’ll democratise small business financing by building technology that eliminates barriers between business and capital.

How we get there

We have built Jack, a bookkeeper powered by our proprietary, multimodal Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) we call Ark.

Tackling bookkeeping first embeds Jack at the heart of a client’s business and their data.

Access to real-time client data at a transactional level becomes our superpower.
