Evan Williams has one of my favorite all-time quotes when it comes to building businesses:
“Take a human desire, preferably one that has been around for a really long time… identify that desire and use modern technology to take out steps.”
That’s exactly what Mercury does. It takes one of the most basic human needs - managing money - and removes all the friction that’s been part of it for decades.
No more clunky interfaces. No more running to the bank for simple tasks. No more wasting time juggling a million tabs just to see the financial health of your company.
Mercury simplifies business banking** by cutting out the unnecessary steps, so you can get back to running your business.
That’s why Mercury’s so great. And it’s already being used by 200,000 ambitious founders.
