Our take
Spendesk is an all-in-one spend management solution created to deliver more control, visibility, and automation to today's finance teams. Top startups like Drivy, Konbini, Dataiku or Deezer are already customers of Spendesk.
With flexible payments, approvals, automated receipt capture and real-time spend insights, the company specifically allows finance teams to decentralise operational spending across the business without any loss of control or visibility. Employees benefit from streamlined expense and invoice management through the Spendesk website and app.
Expense management platforms are becoming an increasingly crowded space, with competitors like Soldo and Expensify also building similar products. Spendesk will have to keep innovating its offerings to stay relevant. But with substantial funding to its name along with a number of strategic partnerships (including Visa), the company is making sure it stays ahead of the competition.
