Vareto raised $30M+ (a16z) for modern FP&A replacing spreadsheet chaos with collaborative planning, live dashboards, and scenario analysis for mid-market finance teams (San Francisco CA).
Vareto is a modern financial planning and analysis platform built to replace the patchwork of spreadsheets, presentation tools, and disconnected data sources that constitute FP&A workflows at most mid-market companies. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, Vareto has raised more than $30 million from investors including Andreessen Horowitz. The company was founded by former finance leaders and engineers who experienced the inefficiency of spreadsheet-based FP&A and set out to build a purpose-designed platform that combines the flexibility of spreadsheets with the power of centralized data management and collaborative workflows.\n\nVareto's platform provides a connected planning environment where finance teams can build budget and forecast models, create management reporting packages and board materials, and share real-time dashboards with business partners — all from a single platform that integrates with source systems including NetSuite, Workday, Salesforce, and others. The product emphasizes the storytelling and communication aspects of finance that are often as important as the modeling itself, with tools for building polished, data-driven narratives that help CFOs communicate clearly with boards and executives.\n\nVareto competes in the crowded modern FP&A market alongside Mosaic Tech, Cube, Runway Financial, and Drivetrain, targeting growing companies at the mid-market and growth-stage level. The company's a16z backing has raised its profile, and its focus on the full finance team workflow from planning through reporting and communication differentiates it from tools that focus narrowly on modeling. Vareto continues to expand its integration library and invest in AI-assisted features that automate routine finance tasks.
Billtrust (acquired by FLEETCOR/Corpay) delivers end-to-end AR automation from invoice delivery through cash application and collections for mid-market and enterprise clients.
Billtrust is an accounts receivable automation and B2B payments company that provides a comprehensive order-to-cash platform for mid-market and enterprise businesses. Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, Billtrust was acquired by FLEETCOR Technologies (now Corpay) to become part of one of the world's largest B2B payments businesses. Billtrust's platform covers the complete AR lifecycle from invoice delivery and customer payment portals through cash application, collections management, and credit decisioning, helping businesses accelerate cash flow and reduce the manual labor involved in managing large customer receivables portfolios.\n\nBilltrust's Business Payments Network (BPN) is a key differentiator, connecting AR teams with a network of buyer payment platforms and enabling electronic remittance matching that dramatically reduces the manual cash application work that burdens AR teams when customers pay by check or without detailed remittance information. The platform's AI-powered cash application engine automatically matches incoming payments to open invoices, handling complex scenarios like partial payments, short pays, and deductions, with automation rates that significantly reduce manual application work. Electronic invoice delivery, self-service customer portals, and automated collections workflows complete the AR automation suite.\n\nBilltrust competes with HighRadius, YayPay, Cforia, and the AR modules of large ERP systems, and has built particular strength in industries with high transaction volumes and complex payment scenarios including manufacturing, distribution, food and beverage, and wholesale. Its combination of AR automation software, B2B payment network capabilities, and now the scale of Corpay's payments infrastructure makes the combined entity a formidable competitor in the AR automation and B2B payments market.
