grinders! congrats to team monk 🚀

[George Kurdin @GeorgeKurdin]

Today @usemonk is announcing our $25M Series A co-led by @footworkvc and @AcrewCapital with continued support from @btv_vc.

$3T sits in U.S. accounts receivable. Our mission is to close the gap between earning revenue and receiving it.

For most B2B companies, that gap is 45-90 days, thousands of hours of manual work per year, and millions in trapped working capital. It's a tax every growing business pays.

Monk invented the Intelligent Collections category.

Most AR tools automate the easy parts. We built for the edge cases, portal uploads, PO mismatches, and disputes.

On average, customers see 40% lower DSO, 24% higher collections response rate and 25+ hours/month saved.

Thank you to @ElevenLabs, @tryprofound, @siro_app, and our customers for the trust.

Our platform typically pays for itself in month one.
Book a demo to learn more.

This guy absolutely grinds. So epic to see this launch 🚀

$3 Trillion is currently stuck in unpaid invoices.
An average invoice takes 59 days to clear.

If you're doing >$10M in revenue, getting paid in 30 days instead of 59 days will literally make you millions over 2 years.

Introducing Monk. It collects your money faster and pays for itself in 30 days, guaranteed.

Fast-growing companies like ElevenLabs and Profound rely on Monk.

The Problem: 39% of the $3T stuck is due to two stupid reasons:

1. "Please fix this comma in the invoice and then we'll pay you'" (this happens 2-3 times per transaction)

2. "Sorry the payment reminder got buried in my inbox" (automated emails get ignored)

A payment that should take 2 days, takes 10 days. Your cash on hand is embarrassingly behind "recorded revenue".

To fix this, we raised $4M led by @btv_vc with participation from @gtmfund and @danonanthony.

For our first product, we had to innovate on 3 dimensions:

1. Monk turns signed contracts into invoices with near-perfect precision

- We leverage frontier models to extract key terms from your deals and turn them into invoices.

2. ⁠Monk collects payments agentically with a 24% better reply rate than automated emails:

- Tuned to write emails that feel like a human request, not spam. Your invoice is competing with everything in their inbox.

- We know how to find an alternate point-of-contact when someone is OOO, when to reach out, and what tonality yields a higher response rate.

If you had someone on your team whose invoice emails got answered 24% more than others - that would be a big deal. You’d make them the head of revenue collection.

3. Granular visibility into your cashflow:

- Understand your cash position, aging, or expansion/contraction at customer level.

Book a demo at https://t.co/TDh6xJPdWn and we guarantee that Monk will pay for itself within 30 days.

If you've read this far, we are giving away 40 water-tight contract templates. This would cost >$10K to any agency, startups, or freelancer, to create from scratch.

Retweet this and comment 'Monk' and we'll send them to you.

This is like west elm caleb but for startups

[Adit @aditabrm]

Mind blown at how widespread this is.

We *also* considered Soham for our first eng role, thought he did great in the first technical, but didn't move forward to work trial after a lot of back and forth on logistics

(which maybe was just because he was overemployed)

I spent years trying and failing to figure out where my last name came from

Deep research just solved it in 30 mins

[Sam Plank @SamuelMGPlank]

It even showed me his gravestone and the cemetery where I can find it. Powerful tool

[Sam Plank @SamuelMGPlank]

It went 7 generations back from me, with each link corroborated by a bunch of evidence, and found Johannes Planck. He came to upstate New York around 1770 from Wurttemberg, Germany. He farmed, fought in the Revolution, and changed his name to John Plank
