๐Ÿ“ NYC, 5 days/week

Our founders saw firsthand how broken SMB payroll and finance had become. The average SMB stitches together 5+ tools just to pay people, move money, and close their books. We started Thera to collapse that fragmented stack into a single source of truth.

Backed by YC, 10X Founders, Zillionize, and Amino Capital.
