The listing, marked up
Nothing in the wording of this listing tripped a check. The scores above still judge how complete and coherent it is.
Middesk helps companies figure out who’s actually behind a business. Banks, fintechs, and platforms rely on us to get that answer fast and accurate before they issue a card, fund a merchant, or open an account.
We pull data from hundreds of government agencies, resolve it into a single view of a business, and serve it through an API. Business verification is becoming core infrastructure connecting businesses, banks, and governments, and that’s what we’re building. And our engineers build with AI every day. Earlier this year, agents helped us refactor our entire data pipeline.
Middesk is a Series B company backed by Sequoia and Accel, came out of YC, and was recently named to Forbes’ Fintech 50. We’re looking for folks who like getting close to customers and turning that context into product decisions.
