Numeric, an innovative accounting software startup, has raised $28 million in a Series A funding round led by Menlo Ventures, following a $10 million seed round just five months prior. Founded by Parker Gilbert, Numeric automates the book-closing process, significantly reducing the time accountants spend on month-end tasks. The software integrates AI to analyze financial data, providing explanations for variances and improving accuracy. With a four-fold revenue increase over the last year, Numeric is set to disrupt the accounting software market dominated by established players. Investors see a strong potential for future product expansions.
