Founded in 2021, Keeper has raised $6M in seed funding, backed by leading tech investors like Y Combinator and founders at top startups like Lattice, Front, Superhuman, Plaid, and more. Keeper currently helps thousands of bookkeepers and accountants manage the books for startups and small businesses across the US.
