Y Combinator’s Post

🙌 We are thrilled to announce our $10 million Series A investment in GovDash (YC W22), the AI-powered platform transforming the way federal contractors manage their business development processes. We're proud to lead this round, with participation from Y Combinator and select angel investors, including GovDash customers. 🇺🇸 Today, contractors often spend weeks on proposals, drafting them manually or hiring consultants. This not only exhausts teams but also caps revenue opportunities. With GovDash's AI automation, contractors can submit more proposals and boost business development efficiency. 💬 Our Principal Molly Alter who is joining the board adds, “In any given year the U.S. government spends over $650B in contracted work, virtually all of which has to pass through a formal RFP process. GovDash is building a defining Vertical AI company that will allow these government contractors to automate away rigorous workflows and re-focus on their core products and services, which are vital to the United States as a whole. We believe GovDash embodies our thesis of vertical AI and are excited to support their growth." Welcome to the portfolio Sean Doherty, Timothy Goltser, Curtis Mason and team 👋 Read more about our investment below 👇

Have met dozens of great companies building tools for CFOs in the past couple months. I’m especially excited about the rapidly evolving landscape of tools supporting CFOs in Billing, Accounts Receivable, and Revenue Management. There is increasing demand for innovative billing platforms as traditional systems fall short. We also see a clear shift towards hybrid pricing models combining subscriptions with usage-based and other approaches. We believe this trend will likely grow with advancing automation and AI. These technologies will make per-seat pricing less relevant and enable businesses to deliver value without a clear user. We increasingly see a pressing need for agile billing systems that can handle diverse payment models while ensuring accurate revenue recognition and minimizing leakage. Many businesses still rely on in-house or outdated systems, opening opportunities for new, adaptable platforms. I'm particularly excited about tools using revenue recognition and reconciliation as a wedge.
