📣 The team at KredosAI are excited to announce that we have closed new funding to improve payment outcomes for consumers and enterprises! Led by StartFast Ventures along with a consortium of other investors, the new capital will be used for accelerating product development, hiring new team members, and global expansion. "We’re excited to work with StartFast Ventures and our other partners. They recognize our solution provides a truly disruptive approach, at scale, to a trillion-dollar problem,” said our co-founder and CEO Balaji Sridharan. Our proprietary AI model learns from actual customer payment behavior, enabling the platform to experiment with strategies and scale effectively. "We are uniquely focused on improving payment outcomes, not click throughs or open rates that are typically measured by legacy solutions or systems that are not built for purpose," explained David Thoms, co-founder and COO. StartFast Managing Partner Nasir Ali added, “KredosAI enables rapid experimentation, allowing enterprises to retain more customers and reduce non-payment churn. This is unlike any solution on the market today.” Thank you to our team, investors and partners for your trust and backing. With your support, we are helping enterprises provide a superior experience for delinquent customers.
