Get started

Today, we’re excited to share we’ve raised a $52.5 million Series B led by Insight Partners, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz and M12, Microsoft’s Venture Fund, just ten months after our Series A.

More than 150 companies now use Stuut, including Fortune 50 and Fortune 500 enterprises. Over $3 billion has moved through the platform, and our customers are cutting DSO by 47% while freeing up as much as 40% more cash flow.

We raised this round because demand for Stuut has grown far beyond where we started.

When we started Stuut, we started with collections. It was an obvious place to begin because the problem was easy to see: companies had earned the revenue, sent the invoice, and still had teams spending enormous amounts of time figuring out why the cash hadn’t arrived.

As we worked with larger enterprises, something became clear. The overdue invoice was usually the last visible symptom of something that had happened much earlier. A PO was missing, pricing didn’t match, an invoice went to the wrong person, or context disappeared as the transaction moved between sales, operations and finance. By the time collections picked it up, someone had to reconstruct what happened before they could even begin solving the payment problem.

At enterprise scale, the cost of that is enormous. Businesses worldwide have $16 trillion locked up in receivables. Broken order-to-cash can cost a company 5% of its revenue, close to $1 trillion a year across the Fortune 500 alone.

Yet for all that money at stake, most order-to-cash software has historically stopped at identifying the problem. Collections software could tell you which account needed attention. Dispute software could surface a deduction. Cash application software could show you what hadn’t matched. Once the problem was identified, though, a person still had to take it from there.

AI changes that.

Software can now contact a customer, log into a portal, investigate what happened, resolve an exception, apply the cash and decide what needs to happen next. More importantly, it can carry context from one step to the next rather than rebuilding it every time a transaction crosses into a different team or system.

Once the same system can understand what happened upstream and act on what needs to happen downstream, collections stops being the boundary. The job is the entire journey from order to cash.

That is what Stuut does today.

Stuut is the most capable AI coworker across the order-to-cash lifecycle, built to run inside the world’s largest enterprises. It spans order management, credit, collections, payments, cash application, disputes and deductions in one system.

Customers have already been pulling Stuut across more of that lifecycle. ZoomInfo has expanded Stuut into disputes; Honeywell runs Stuut on top of legacy SAP and is moving into quote-to-cash; Bishop Lifting uses Stuut for collections, disputes and cash application across 45 branches.

The results come from removing one of the basic constraints of order-to-cash: human attention.

A finance team can only follow up with so many customers, investigate so many deductions or reconcile so many payments in a day. Attention naturally concentrates on the biggest or most urgent accounts. Stuut can work across thousands of customers and invoices at once, while remembering how each customer pays, what has gone wrong before and how it was resolved. It keeps working across the long tail without losing context or dropping the next action.

Doing this inside the world’s largest enterprises is the harder part. These companies run legacy ERPs, global entities, customer portals and financial controls built up over decades. They cannot rebuild their infrastructure every time a new technology arrives, and adopting AI cannot mean lowering the bar for how financial work gets done.

Stuut was built for that environment. It plugs into the systems enterprises already use, works within their existing processes, approvals and controls, and makes every action auditable. Companies can put Stuut to work without replacing the infrastructure underneath them. That is why some of the world’s largest enterprises now trust Stuut with increasingly critical parts of their order-to-cash operation. Every enterprise that has run a proof of concept with us has become a customer.

This round lets us bring Stuut to more enterprises and go deeper into the financial infrastructure around every transaction, including credit, lending and the movement of funds.

Our mission is to make the movement of money between businesses autonomous. Order-to-cash is where we’re starting, but over time we want Stuut to carry a transaction from the moment a company decides to sell something through every decision, document and payment that follows. The end state is much bigger: B2B commerce that runs itself.

Thank you to Insight Partners for leading the round, to Andreessen Horowitz and M12, Microsoft’s Venture Fund, for joining us, and most of all to the customers who have trusted Stuut with more and more of their business.

They are the reason Stuut today is much larger than the product we started with.
