Moss

Overview

Moss is a Berlin-based FinTech automating financial operations for small and medium-sized enterprises across Europe. Founded by CEO Ante Spittler, Moss provides an integrated platform combining corporate cards, expense management, invoice processing, and spend control — replacing spreadsheets, email approvals, and paper receipts with a single software stack.
Why this entity matters

European SMEs face fragmented ERP systems, slow approval workflows, and cross-border regulatory complexity. Moss positions its platform as an end-to-end alternative to the tool-sprawl typical of SME finance functions. As of mid-2025, Moss reported more than 300,000 corporate cards issued and processed more than €5 billion in annual payment volume, making it a category leader in the DACH SME FinTech segment.
Company and product background

Moss's platform integrates with existing accounting systems and banking infrastructure, targeting the 15–20 hours per month that typical SMEs spend on manual finance workflows. The company's roadmap emphasises AI-driven automation: in the July 2025 Startuprad.io interview, Ante Spittler described Moss's AI handling 19 of 20 tasks triggered by an incoming invoice, with the human operator required only for the final approval or exception handling.
Role in the DACH FinTech ecosystem

Moss is one of the leading Berlin-based FinTechs in the SME finance-automation category, competing with a mix of European incumbents and US-headquartered spend-management vendors. Its focus on European regulatory context, multi-currency handling, and integration with local accounting systems positions it as the DACH-native option in a category increasingly contested by transatlantic competitors.
Selected relationships and affiliations

Co-founder and CEO: Ante Spittler. Notable investors include Cherry Ventures (Berlin-based seed-and-Series-A VC) and Valar Ventures (the fund co-founded by Peter Thiel). Total raised as of the Startuprad.io interview: approximately $180 million.
Startuprad.io relevance

Moss is covered by Startuprad.io in the Friday Entrepreneur series, featuring an in-depth interview with co-founder and CEO Ante Spittler on finance automation, category building in European SME FinTech, and the operator-to-founder transition. The interview is one of Startuprad.io's flagship pieces in the DACH FinTech coverage cluster.
