Synapse

Payments Infrastructure

Synapse was a Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform that provided fintech companies with APIs to access banking infrastructure including deposit accounts, payment rails, and card issuing. Founded in 2014, Synapse grew rapidly during the BaaS boom, serving over 100 fintech companies and claiming to power accounts for tens of millions of end users. The platform offered ACH transfers, wire payments, debit card issuance, and deposit account capabilities through bank partnerships with Evolve Bank & Trust, American Bank, AMG National Trust, and Lineage Bank. Synapse's developer-friendly API and relatively accessible pricing made it popular with early-stage fintechs. However, in April 2024, Synapse filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 7, leaving tens of thousands of end users unable to access their funds due to a significant shortfall in reconciled balances between Synapse and its banking partners. This event became one of the most significant failures in fintech history, prompting regulatory scrutiny of the BaaS model and highlighting the risks of middleware between fintechs and FDIC-insured banks. The FDIC and banking regulators subsequently increased oversight of BaaS arrangements. Synapse's collapse has accelerated the direct bank partnership model and raised fundamental questions about custodial responsibility in multi-party BaaS relationships. New customers should not engage with Synapse and should evaluate its alternatives carefully.

TaxBrain

Tax Filing Personal

TaxBrain is an online tax filing platform that offers self-service filing alongside professional tax preparer assistance options, serving individual filers who want the convenience of online filing with access to human expertise when needed.

State returns are prepared alongside federal with consistent interview flow. Refund maximizer analyzes completed returns for missed deductions and credits. TaxBrain is backed by a professional tax services company, providing credibility for the expert support options. While not as well-known as major competitors, TaxBrain provides a solid filing experience with the unique value of accessible professional support at lower cost than full-service tax preparation. The platform is particularly appealing to users who mostly want to self-file but want a professional backup option for complex situations.

FreeTaxUSA (operated by TaxHawk) is one of the best-value tax filing services available, offering free federal tax return preparation for virtually all filers regardless of income or form complexity.

For budget-conscious filers with moderate complexity, FreeTaxUSA is consistently ranked as the best value in online tax filing. Millions of Americans file through the service annually.

Tax Filing Self-Employed

Thimble

Insurance & Risk

Thimble is an insurtech company that pioneered on-demand business insurance, allowing small businesses and freelancers to purchase coverage for specific jobs, events, or time periods rather than annual commitments. This flexible model is particularly valuable for gig workers, seasonal contractors, event vendors, and project-based professionals who don't need year-round coverage and find annual policies economically inefficient. Thimble's job-based policies can be activated in minutes through a smartphone app, covering the duration of a specific project at a fraction of the annual equivalent cost. Monthly policies are also available for businesses with more regular work patterns. Coverage types include general liability, professional liability, commercial drone, tools and equipment, and event insurance. The COI generation process is instant — a critical feature for contractors who need proof of insurance before starting jobs. Thimble's coverage is backed by A-rated carriers. The mobile app manages all active and past policies, generates certificates, and allows quick policy activation for new jobs. The per-job pricing model makes insurance accessible for newer contractors and sole proprietors who previously avoided coverage due to cost. Thimble serves over 50,000 small businesses across the US.

Titan

Investment Management

Titan is an actively managed investment platform that provides retail investors access to hedge fund-style strategies through professionally managed portfolios. Unlike robo-advisors that construct passive index portfolios, Titan's investment team actively selects concentrated positions in high-conviction stocks across its portfolio strategies — Flagship (US large-cap growth), Offshore (international), Opportunities (small/mid-cap), Crypto, Real Estate, and fixed income. The team communicates investment rationale, portfolio changes, and market commentary to clients through regular investor memos, creating a transparency around active management that traditional actively managed funds lack. Performance is benchmarked against relevant indices with full transparency. The 1% management fee is competitive with actively managed mutual funds but more expensive than passive robo-advisors. Minimum investment starts at $500. The platform's educational content explains the investment thesis behind each holding, building investor understanding alongside portfolio management. For investors who believe active management can outperform passive indexing and want institutional-quality research applied to their portfolio, Titan's transparent, concentrated active management approach provides a distinct alternative to the passive strategies that dominate the robo-advisor market.

Tradogram

Tradogram is a cloud-based procurement management platform focused on simplicity, affordability, and ease of implementation for small and mid-sized businesses. Founded in 2014 in Canada, Tradogram serves organizations across manufacturing, healthcare, technology, education, and professional services. The platform covers purchase requisitions, approval workflows, PO management, vendor management, and basic contract tracking. Its clean, intuitive interface prioritizes user adoption over feature depth—a deliberate choice to reduce implementation friction.

Procurement Affordable

Transcepta

Transcepta is an AP automation and supplier connectivity platform that focuses on seamlessly connecting buyers and suppliers for electronic invoice exchange and payment processing. Founded in 2006, Transcepta differentiates through its extensive supplier network and flexible invoice delivery—connecting to supplier systems regardless of their format or delivery method.

Three-way matching validates invoices against POs and receipt data. Approval routing handles configurable multi-level workflows. Payment processing supports ACH, check, and virtual card. The supplier-funded revenue model—where suppliers pay to expedite payment processing—provides buyer-side cost reduction. Early payment programs offer suppliers cash flow improvement in exchange for discounts. Supplier portal enables vendors to submit invoices, track payment status, and view remittance information. Integration with SAP, Oracle, Coupa, and other enterprise systems connects invoice data to existing workflows. Transcepta's approach of prioritizing supplier connectivity and flexible format support over proprietary portals reduces supplier adoption barriers that limit other AP automation deployments.

Treasury Prime

Payments Infrastructure

Treasury Prime is a Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform that connects fintech companies directly to a network of FDIC-insured bank partners, enabling them to embed bank accounts, payments, and cards into their applications. Founded in 2017 by former Plaid engineers, Treasury Prime bridges the gap between fintech innovation and traditional banking infrastructure. The platform provides a unified API that abstracts away the complexity of working directly with bank core systems. Treasury Prime's multi-bank network is a key differentiator—fintechs can access multiple bank partners through a single integration, enabling competitive term negotiation and redundancy. Product capabilities include checking and savings accounts, ACH (same-day and standard), wire transfers, check issuing, debit card issuing, and overdraft products. Treasury Prime's compliance framework includes built-in KYC via partners, AML transaction monitoring, and regulatory reporting. The platform's bank-grade security and audit infrastructure satisfy the requirements of enterprise customers. Integration options range from full API to pre-built UI components that accelerate time-to-market. Treasury Prime has deep relationships with community banks and regional banks, often offering better economics than large BaaS providers. The platform underwent significant restructuring in 2023 and continues to serve fintech clients building embedded banking experiences.

While the Tugboat Logic brand has been largely absorbed into OneTrust's identity, the underlying technology continues to power security compliance automation for OneTrust customers.
