Gusto is an American company founded in 2011 that provides payroll, benefits administration and human resources software to small businesses, a segment the established payroll processors had served with dated software and opaque pricing. It handles payroll runs and the associated tax filings across all American states, administers health insurance and retirement benefits, and offers employee financial products, positioning itself as the system a small business runs its people on rather than a payroll vendor. Headquartered in San Francisco and valued in the billions, it serves hundreds of thousands of businesses and distributes substantially through accountants.

HQ: San Francisco, United States · Digital Banks & Neobanks · 1001-5000 employees · Est. 2012 · Trust B · Hiring 69, 6 new
Chime is an American consumer financial technology company founded in 2012 that offers banking services without operating as a bank itself, holding deposits through partner banks while owning the customer relationship and the app. Its economics rest almost entirely on interchange: it earns a share of the fee merchants pay when members use its debit card, which allowed it to remove the overdraft and monthly fees that traditional banks charge lower-income customers. Headquartered in San Francisco and listed on Nasdaq after its 2025 offering, it serves tens of millions of members who use it as their primary account.
