About Blaze
Blaze (YC S24) is the agentic finance platform. For businesses it's an AI CFO that pays bills, invoices clients, and forecasts cash. For people it's an agent that sends money, converts currencies, and manages your finances globally: you set the rules, it handles the rest. Other AI finance tools just report. Blaze moves the money, on your approval, in stablecoins or straight through the banking system. The founders scaled their last startup to $1M in ARR, studied at Duke, NYU, and Cornell, and led teams at Spotify and Artsy. npx @blaze-money/cli · https://blaze.money
