This Franco-Dutch fintech bags €3M to expand AI-driven cash flow management platform reducing burden on SMEs

Trezy-team

Trezy, the financial and cash flow management platform, has recently announced to have secured a €3 million Seed Round led by Seedcamp and Playfair. The round also saw participation from Kima Ventures and Discovery Ventures, among others. The funding will enable Trezy to accelerate its growth, expand its product offering, and strengthen its teams in the Netherlands, France, and the UK.

Reaching thousands of SMEs with real-time financial forecasting tools

The Franco-Dutch fintech company, is focused on providing real-time financial performance insights through its AI-based platform. By leveraging smart classification of bank transactions, receipts, and invoices, Trezy offers a comprehensive view of financial data. The platform combines accounting data with bank transaction data to deliver financial analysis and predictions regarding financial health. 

With access to 14 million accounting entries and two million bank transactions, Trezy’s “Smart Forecasts” feature enables business owners to project their cash flow into the future. The onboarding process is automated, allowing new users to access their historic and future cash flows within 30 seconds.

Expanding automation 

Trezy aims to further enhance its platform by leveraging generative AI technology to automate data analysis and deliver actionable insights more quickly. By reducing the administrative burden and complexities associated with financial processes, Trezy aims to empower small business owners to make informed decisions regardless of their financial literacy.

Quentin Lacointa, Co-Founder and CEO at Trezy, emphasiSed the importance of addressing SME owners’ concerns regarding cash flow management. He said: “69% of SME owners say they lose sleep at night because they worry about their cash flow. It’s their number one concern and with good reason. With inflation reducing margins, economic conditions hitting growth and financial processes becoming increasingly complicated, there is a huge burden on SMEs. Our goal is to support business owners by giving them easy-to-access, real-time financial insights that will help them to manage their cash flow and, regardless of their financial literacy, make better decisions. 

“Accountancy software has really helped with day-to-day admin and compliance, but it doesn’t provide intelligent support for financial decision-making. This is where Trezy comes in and with this funding we will be able to further develop our platform to help achieve our vision of empowering small business owners on a global scale”

Support from Prominent Investors

The Seed Round was led by Seedcamp and Playfair, who recognized the potential impact of Trezy’s cutting-edge technology. Trezy’s automated enrichment and categorisation of bank transactions sets it apart in the financial management landscape. The ability to merge bank transaction data with accounting information provides actionable insights that can significantly influence financial decision-making for businesses.

Henrik Wetter Sanchez, Partner at Playfair, said: “We are thrilled to support Trezy, a game-changing solution addressing the crucial need for real-time financial management in the SME landscape. Trezy’s innovative approach to combining bank transaction data and accounting data, along with their AI-driven technology, has the potential to revolutionise the way businesses make informed financial decisions. We firmly believe in the vision and dedication of Quentin, Pierre, and their team, and we’re excited to be a part of their journey to empower SMBs around the world.”

Founded in 2020 by Quentin Lacointa and Pierre Houdyer –Trezy, already operating in France, the Netherlands, and the UK, plans to utilise the funding to support its customer base growth and expand its product offering.
