What We Do

Co-founders Alex (CEO) and Tennison (CTO) met in San Francisco and started building Truewind in November 2022. Alex is a 2x YC founder and ex venture capital investor. Tennison has spent 10+ years building software at Flexport, Pinterest, and Alibaba.

It gets a little overused these days—Copilot for X—but it’s the best way to describe what we’re doing. We’re building a Copilot for accountants and financial analysts, an AI assistant so powerful that you’ll become a 10x better strategic partner.

The role of finance isn’t to penny pinch, it’s to be a partner to their business unit counterparts. AI can automate some tasks and as the tech gets better, it can do more and more but it's always about amplifying humans.

We use LLMs to capture the business context that accountants and financial analysts need to tell the story behind the numbers. Finance and accounting isn’t simply numbers, it requires business context that only the operators have. This is where LLMs shine. We use GPT to digest natural language inputs, translate it into accounting journal entries, and learn from it so future journal entries can be automated.

At Truewind, our vision is a world where more startups succeed, where founders can access more variety of capital options, where every leader in an organization can access financial insights, and where investors can scale to invest in all the best companies.

Truewind modernizes the financial back-office for startups. Through a combination of intelligent software and concierge service, we deliver a delightful financial back office experience. Truewind is doing for the back-office what AWS did for computing — making it easy, scalable, and on-demand.

Truewind is a Y-Combinator company and backed by a set of fantastic set of firms, angels and our customers, including Scrum Ventures, Beat Ventures, Soma Capital. We are innovating on the financial infrastructure for private markets, building the repository for financial performance and reducing the friction to information sharing.

Why Work With Us

We’re building an in-person culture at a place we’ve grown to affectionally call Y Canopy. The best part is the community. We share the Canopy Space 4th floor with 6 other YC startups; the energy is simply amazing. We believe building in-person is a 10x multiplier for the company and we hope you’ll join us in San Francisco!
