Technology
There are 63 Million small businesses in India and 90% still manage payroll manually. We launched in January 2021 and already have 1,00,000+ registered businesses.
We are growing fast across emerging markets and running into unique scaling & UX issues. Would love to collaborate with folks who are not afraid to roll up their sleeves, venture into unchartered territories and build a product customers love.
