Panax, a pioneering FinTech firm, has recently announced the successful completion of a $15 million funding round, with Team8 and TLV Partners leading the investment charge.
Founded by Noam Mills (CEO), Sefi Itzkovich (CTO), and Niv Yaar (CBO), Panax specializes in offering an AI-driven cash flow management platform tailored to cater to the needs of mid-market and large enterprises grappling with intricate treasury management requirements. The platform consolidates data directly from banks and ERP systems, providing users with real-time access to crucial cash positions and insights.
As finance teams face mounting challenges in managing multiple bank accounts, disparate fintech solutions, diverse locations, currencies, and entities, Panax’s platform emerges as a comprehensive solution. Customers have reported notable savings on interest payments and increased cash investments in interest-bearing accounts, owing to the automation capabilities of Panax’s platform, which streamlines processes and allows teams to redirect their focus towards strategic activities.
Mackenzie Moore, VP of Finance at Oddity, a publicly traded company in the U.S., lauded the platform’s effectiveness: “The automated data collection and analysis, along with proactive alerts, have helped us automate our cash policies. This not only saves us money but also frees up many hours of manual work that we can now allocate to more strategic pursuits.”
Panax aims to bridge the gap in the market by providing simpler and more accessible solutions tailored for lean finance teams. Leveraging Open Banking and GenAI technologies, the company streamlines and automates financial processes, thereby enhancing operational efficiency.
Recognizing financial forecasting as the top use case for AI in corporate finance, Gartner acknowledges Panax’s utilization of AI to bolster various capabilities, including transaction categorization, proactive reporting, and trend analysis.
The $15 million funding infusion is poised to accelerate Panax’s growth trajectory significantly. It will facilitate the scaling of sales and support teams, the establishment of a New York City office to strengthen the company’s U.S. presence, and an increase in product development resources to cater to the burgeoning market demand for its advanced treasury management solutions.
CEO Noam Mills underscored the company’s mission, stating, “In our previous roles, we witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by finance teams in companies with complex treasury operations. That’s why we founded Panax.”
Panax’s notable achievement of doubling its customer base in the first quarter of 2024 attests to its rapid traction in the market, positioning it as a prominent player in reshaping cash flow management and treasury solutions.
