From retirement to health insurance to mental health, the responsibilities of employers have increased significantly over the years. Despite the challenges posed by the macro backdrop, U.S. employment has been growing steadily, with the unemployment rate at its lowest in 54 years. However, the employment ecosystem faces significant challenges due to a lack of data accessibility. Over [**580M+**](https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_42a565fad3b05202f68a701c324ba36f/equifax/db/2011/19329/investor_relations_presentation/October+2022+Investor+Relations+Presentation_.pdf?ref=finch-the-universal-api-for-employment-systems) U.S. employment records and $15T of funds are processed across [**20,000+**](/content/whitepapers/index.html) employment data systems, including payroll, HRIS, benefits administration, and others. Moreover, the ecosystem lacks necessary connectivity, with records mainly passed via manual data entry, SFTP, and emails filled with sensitive information. We are here to change that by making it easy to access data and direct payments across the sector with our unified employment API. We've made significant progress since announcing our Series A just eight months ago— - Several months of positive cash flow and a 12x increase in revenue since the company's Series A round announced in June 2022. - Over 2 million employees connected through the Finch platform. - Over 60 employees globally, representing 4x Y/Y growth - New partnerships with leading employment platforms, including [**BambooHR**](/content/blog/bamboohr-partnership/index.html), [**HiBob**](/content/blog/hibob-partnership/index.html), and others yet to be announced. With this funding, we will accelerate connectivity across the employment data ecosystem and help employers and employees use the products and services they need to grow and thrive. We're putting this capital to work by investing in new and existing products and expanding our team to support customers and partners across the HR, Fintech, and Benefits verticals. Our vision is to build a future where employment is connected and programmable. With Finch, applications can instantly gain compatibility with 200+ employment systems to provide products and services to employers.
