| RipeLocker uses a unique, patent-pending system to manage atmospheric pressure, humidity, and gas composition in its containers. The system is designed to cost-effectively maintain the quality of produce as it travels through adverse operating and environmental conditions along a post-harvest distribution chain. | $2M / Series A / Jul 10, 2020 | ||
| Today, accounting teams keep their books in sync with customers and vendors by manually transcribing paper, email, and PDFs into their accounting system. This manual transcription is slow and error-prone creating cash traps in receivables and cash leaks in payables. We believe there is a better way to keep books up to date and cash flowing. AtLockstep, we're re-imagining how accounting teams work by transforming the current network of emails into trusted connections between accounting systems. Lockstep makes accounting more accurate and timely, improves cash flow, and frees staff to focus on high value activities. | Seed / May 01, 2019 |
