Not only do @Footprint_HQ and @joinfizz work out of the same space on Wooster, but @getpinxyz @stephmui and @andrew__rea are right around the corner. Is Soho/Chinatown becoming the center of NYC's early stage tech universe?

feature request for AP and accounting products: Auto check invoices for compliance with master services agreements or SOWs, and automate reconciliation. Companies lose non-trivial sums to vendors with bad AR departments and checking this is very manual and time consuming.
