Our take
Merge API helps B2B companies navigate the increasing number of APIs needed to integrate SaaS products. Its unified API provides access to dozens of payroll, recruiting, accounting, and HR platforms using a single integration layer. It also offers integration management tools. Together, these features are designed to help businesses work with a large number of APIs without compromising on efficiency.
Merge was founded in 2020 and has already built a large client base for itself, including Deed, AngelList, Ramp and Reachdesk. It has also expanded into new areas, providing support for CRM tools, ticketing systems and project management functions.
After increasing annual revenue by over 30 times in 2022, Merge raised investment funds in a Series B round led by Accel. The company is utilizing this influx of funding to hire additional talent and build out its product into new verticals such as an on-premises offering for enterprises.
