1/

Hiring your first employee is one of the biggest moments for a founder. But payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance are far more complicated than they need to be.

Now with AI we can make the pain of payroll go away.

@Mercury Payroll* launches today!

Excited to announce @Mercury crossing $1bn/yr in revenue and 450k customers.

Just getting started! https://t.co/gqSlNgDwHf

I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

Announcing Mercury Raise for Series A

Raising a Series A is a bit different than raising a Seed—you'll need a lead investor, for instance.

To help out, we're launching a new, daylong intensive for companies raising a Series A within the next 6 months: https://t.co/z26u0TS1hb

[Mercury @mercury]

We're excited to let you know we raised a $120m Series B led by Coatue, with participation from @a16z, @CRV, & @SapphireVC.

We also want our customers to be part of our success, so we're doing something new.

We've set aside a $5m allocation to let you into the round 👇

[Mercury @mercury]

We've made domestic and international wires free to send, for everyone.

We are hiring an US-educated engineer who didn’t get an H1b and instead is going to work for us in Canada.

He is now going to build a life and pay taxes in Canada.

In the remote world talent can be anywhere.

Our bad immigration policy is directly leading to lower US GDP!
