&lt;p&gt;The round was led by &lt;strong&gt;Sequoia Capital&lt;/strong&gt; with participation from existing investors &lt;strong&gt;Founders Fund&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Atlanta Ventures fund&lt;/strong&gt;, and several strategic angels. The company is now valued at roughly &lt;strong&gt;$420 million&lt;/strong&gt; post-money, according to a source familiar with the round.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The startup, which builds &lt;strong&gt;API infrastructure for small-business banking&lt;/strong&gt;, has 95 employees today — most of them in Atlanta. The new funding will be used to open offices in &lt;strong&gt;San Francisco&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Seattle&lt;/strong&gt;, double the Atlanta engineering team to about 200, and accelerate product investment in AI-powered features.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
