About Us

Fintechs and banks use Greenlite agents to investigate high-risk onboardings, conduct entity due diligence, and perform regulatory reporting.

We've raised $4.8M led by Greylock, generate significant annual recurring revenue, and already serve financial institutions across three continents. We're on a high-growth trajectory and we're looking for people who want to join us on the journey to building a generational company.

The Problem We’re Trying to Solve

The internet revolutionized the way financial services are distributed, making them more accessible and convenient than ever before. However, this rapid expansion has also led to a new challenge: an overwhelming amount of noise and a scarcity of clear, actionable signals for making sound risk decisions.

Today, teams are faced with the increasing challenge of navigating the complex landscape of compliance and onboarding. Manual due diligence processes are time-consuming and difficult to scale, hindering the ability to efficiently identify and mitigate risks.

How We’re Solving This Problem

This is where Greenlite comes in. Our mission is to boost the signal amidst the noise, empowering financial institutions to make informed decisions and expand access to financial services for the businesses and individuals who need it most. With the help of large language models, we're transforming the way compliance and onboarding teams operate, enabling them to work smarter, faster, and more effectively.

As a Software Engineer at Greenlite, you’ll be responsible for the development and scaling of our core platform, working closely with enterprise customers, as well as building new zero-to-one initiatives.
