Hi! It's @erictway here - cofounder of Karat. Together with my cofounder Will - we just raised $70M to help creators with their finances 🥹
We're going to walk through the real founding story behind Karat - all the confusion and triumphs and day to day that my cofounder and I experienced.
Our investors are top creators we work with - like @ludwig , @GrahamStephan , @NickDiGiovanni , @BotezLive , @Wendoverproductions - as well as previous founders & CEOs from YouTube, Twitter, Twitch, TikTok, CAA and Wealthfront.
Creators - we're also introducing a new business credit card that *also* can build your personal credit score via an official partnership with Visa -

We're also upgrading our taxes service for creators with a new team and bringing it out of beta at [ Ссылка ].
