CapitalOS Completes $21.9 Million Series A Financing Led by LGVP
CapitalOS has completed a $21.9 million Series A financing round, led by LGVP, with participation from WEX Venture Capital, Group11, Great North Ventures, and Night Capital.
The company provides embedded spend management infrastructure for vertical software platforms, including card, bill payment, and wallet tools, enabling platforms to offer branded financial services to small and medium-sized business clients; it handles compliance, risk, and underwriting operations, allowing platforms to deploy relevant features in weeks or days.
In the past 18 months, the platform's processing volume has grown over 20 times; reports indicate the company serves dozens of B2B platforms, with over 25,000 cardholders and transaction volumes in the billions of dollars.
CapitalOS was founded in 2022 by Nir Dremer and Matan Goldschmidt, with team backgrounds including Stripe, Microsoft, Lyft, and Tipalti; it has previously completed equity and debt financing, and this round of funding will be used to expand infrastructure to support more platforms launching financial products.
The products cover financial lifecycle aspects such as billing, cards, wallets, and receivables, automating the orchestration of payment timing and options; LGVP general partner Itai Tsiddon has joined the board and stated that under AI-accelerated demand, the platform has grown over 10 times.
The funds will go towards embedded financial infrastructure and automated underwriting systems; vertical SaaS platforms gain customer spend management capabilities through integration, while software companies needing to build compliance and risk teams face competitive pressure in the speed of launching financial services.
The company claims this model positions the platform as the financial operating system for clients, rather than selling standalone financial suites.

CapitalOS was founded in 2022 by former employees of companies like Stripe, focusing on providing embedded spend management and payment tools for B2B vertical software; after completing a mixed financing round in 2023, it entered operations, with this Series A round led by LGVP to expand infrastructure.
The capital path reflects an investment in automated underwriting, compliance, and risk systems, strategically outputting card and bill payment capabilities to software platforms through a single API, allowing platforms to offer financial services to small and medium-sized businesses without needing to build their own teams.
This is similar to the path of embedded finance integrating payment and spend tools into existing software, and resembles cases where some companies serve vertical SaaS through infrastructure layers rather than directly targeting end enterprises; the current phase represents an expansion period for embedded financial services in vertical software.
Essentially, it is a restructuring of the industry chain: separating the compliance, risk, and issuance aspects of financial services from within software platforms to external infrastructure providers, using automated orchestration and API integration to shorten launch times, enabling vertical software to distribute financial products through existing customer relationships while concentrating underwriting and operational risks at the infrastructure level.
