Lettuce Financial bags $15m Series A led by Zeev Ventures

  • Funding Secured: Lettuce Financial, a San Francisco-based fintech start-up, has raised $15 million in a Series A funding round led by Zeev Ventures, a Californian venture capital firm. This follows a previous $6 million seed round in March also led by Zeev Ventures.
  • Company Overview: Founded in 2023, Lettuce Financial provides a tax and accounting automation platform targeted at solopreneurs, contractors, and freelancers.
  • Banking Services: The company’s banking services are supported by TransPecos Banks, with deposits insured by the FDIC up to $250,000.
  • Use of Funds:
    • The Series A funding will be used to drive accelerated growth, innovation, and product development.
    • Previous seed funding was aimed at advancing product innovation, AI research, and expanding the Solopreneur Accelerator programme, which helps solopreneurs with business structure, expenses, healthcare, retirement planning, and tax strategies.
  • New Product Launch: In June, Lettuce launched a chatbot, LettuceHead AI, designed to assist solopreneurs with tax and accounting inquiries.
  • Mission and Market Impact: Founder and CEO Ran Harpaz emphasizes the goal of democratizing tax and accounting services for solopreneurs. Lettuce aims to help this segment, which contributes significantly to the economy but often lacks adequate guidance, by potentially reclaiming up to $50 billion in business growth through optimized tax and accounting strategies.
