About Hearthside

We’re building finance for the independent economy.

Tools for makers, small teams, and local businesses who deserve a clearer view of their money.

Our mission

Keep ambition close to the numbers.

Hearthside gives independent businesses one place to collect income, plan cash, and pay the people who make the work possible.

The world’s most useful companies are often small by design. Their financial tools should understand irregular seasons, careful growth, and more than one definition of success.

We are building an account that feels less like a gatekeeper and more like a capable partner.

Our backers

Patient operators and institutions who believe useful financial infrastructure should reach beyond venture-backed companies.

28 people and growing thoughtfully

We are a mix of finance practitioners, designers, engineers, and customer advocates. We value judgment over theater, direct language over jargon, and durable craft over frantic output.

Our work happens across eight cities and one shared set of standards.
