Startup Naïve has raised $28.5 million to build out a platform that automates much of the administrative grunt work involved in setting up and running a company, from incorporation and licensing to financial systems and operational workflows. The company’s pitch is straightforward: let founders focus on strategy and vision, while the platform handles the paperwork.
By automating tasks that typically eat up time and money in a company’s early days, Naïve aims to lower the barrier to entry for entrepreneurs who may lack the resources or expertise to navigate business setup on their own. The company argues this kind of infrastructure could help level the playing field for founders without access to teams of lawyers and accountants.
The funding round signals investor confidence in Naïve’s approach to reshaping how new businesses get off the ground. As the platform develops, its progress is likely to be watched closely by entrepreneurs, investors and others tracking how automation continues to reshape the earliest stages of company building.
