Creem was founded by Google and Adyen alumni Gabriel Ferraz and Alec Erasmus. The company is building financial tools for small software companies that operate across different countries.
Its platform brings several key financial processes into one place, including billing, payments, tax compliance, payouts, and revenue management.
Creem aims to help small software teams that can now build products faster with AI tools but still face challenges when setting up the systems needed to sell and make money from those products.
The company says founders often have to use different services for checkout, tax compliance, payouts, affiliate programs, billing, analytics, and other revenue-related tasks. Creem aims to bring these functions together on a single platform.
