Company overview:
Hi 👋 we’re Clerkie, a fintech startup based in SF. We’re a team of nearly 30 spread across the country, and we’re on a mission to help Americans get out of debt.
The consumer debt crisis is at an all-time high ($17T) and most Americans live paycheck-to-paycheck. When people fall into debt, it’s typically driven by scenarios outside of their control, and for many families, it can be incredibly difficult to navigate. We’re here to help Americans manage their debt and give them the tools to succeed. We work closely with borrowers to help triage their financial situation, increase their credit score, and automatically negotiate their outstanding debts. We provide powerful and innovative tooling to both consumers and creditors to streamline repayment through the next generation of financial tooling.
Clerkie launched in 2018 and has significant financial backing from leading financial and venture institutions like Citi, Left Lane Capital, Wellington Ventures, Flourish Ventures, and Vestigo Ventures.
