Lettuce Financial, a pioneering FinTech company specialising in automated accounting and tax solutions for solopreneurs, has successfully closed a $15m Series A funding round.
This significant financial injection was led by Zeev Ventures, a prominent investor in innovative technology startups.
This funding round is set to propel Lettuce Financial into its next growth phase, with plans to accelerate product development and innovation. The capital will also enhance the company’s ability to forge key partnerships across the industry.
At its core, Lettuce Financial provides critical financial tools designed to optimise business taxes for solopreneurs—a rapidly growing segment of the workforce. With products like LettuceHead AI, a unique AI-chat bot, the company offers tailored advice on tax and accounting questions, directly addressing the needs of its users.
The new funding will be used to expand Lettuce’s capabilities and reach.
Ran Harpaz, CEO and founder of Lettuce Financial, said, “Businesses run by solopreneurs represent more than $200 billion in unmanaged, unpredicted, and unoptimized taxes, and although they are key contributors to the economy, solopreneurs have little guidance on how to approach and manage their businesses accounting and taxes.
“We are democratizing the world of taxes and accounting for solopreneurs and aim to put at least $50bn back into business growth by helping them navigate the tax system and implement accounting strategies tailored to their business needs.”
Further enriching its ecosystem, Lettuce Financial has partnered with major platforms such as Upwork and NEXT Insurance, enhancing its service offerings through strategic collaborations. These partnerships are crucial as they provide solopreneurs with more integrated and accessible financial management solutions.
Lettuce Financial’s previous seed funding was announced alongside the launch of the company in March.
Oren Zeev, Founding Partner of Zeev Ventures, said, “Lettuce addresses a major problem and hurdle for solopreneurs. Their proven track record and positive response from this segment show a deep understanding of both the opportunities and challenges that solopreneurs face.
“I believe in their vision and am confident that this investment will drive their next phase of growth, enabling Lettuce to better serve solopreneurs and strengthen their market position.”
