Crowded, a financial management platform for nonprofits, raises $7.5M in Series A, totaling $13.5M in funding
The Miami-based company aims to simplify financial operations for nonprofit organisations through AI-powered tools.
The funding round was led by Flashpoint, a $500m transatlantic VC firm known for backing companies such as Guesty, Chili Piper, and Mesh Payments. Additional participation came from the Florida Opportunity Fund, Wilson’s Bird Capital, led by Efi Shema, and existing investors Sarona Ventures and The Garage.
Crowded offers an all-in-one financial management solution tailored for nonprofits, providing services such as multi-chapter banking, payment processing, expense management, and AI-powered tax filing. The platform enables nonprofit organisations to improve financial oversight, enhance compliance, and streamline operations, ultimately allowing them to focus more on their mission.
Crowded CEO Daniel Grunstein said, “In the wake of President Trump’s executive order & funding freeze, the spotlight on nonprofit financial management and accountability has never been brighter.
“Nonprofits handle $3.9trn in payments annually and make up 14% of US GDP, yet outdated systems and fragmented processes hold back their efficiency and impact. This funding allows us to expand our nonprofit financial management platform with payment processing, compliance, and AI-powered taxation tools—giving nonprofits the modern infrastructure they need to operate as seamlessly as the world’s top enterprises.
“By solving these challenges, we’re enabling organizations to focus less on administration and more on their mission to drive change.”
