Company

We are a Berlin-based B2C fintech operating in stealth, founded by two repeat founders (YC alum, exit) with prior 10+ year careers in investment banking and strategy consulting, respectively. We recently raised investment to assemble a 15 people, exceptionally strong core team.

Our culture is built on ownership and clarity. We align with you on vision, then set KPIs and required resources together—and then trust your drive and expertise.
