Y Combinator-backed Rulebase wants to be the AI coworker for fintech


Rulebase is building AI “coworkers” to review customer interaction, keep fintechs compliant, and take the grunt work out of back-office ops.

The startup, founded by Gideon Ebose and Chidi Williams, two Nigerian engineers who met in London, just raised a $2.1 million pre-seed round led by Bowery Capital, with participation from Y Combinator, Commerce Ventures, Transpose Platform VC, alongside several angels. Its AI agent can evaluate customer interactions, flag regulatory risks, and trigger the right follow-ups across tools like Zendesk, Jira, and Slack without losing the human-in-the-loop oversight that financial firms demand. “Our ‘Coworker’ tool integrates across platforms and collaborates with human agents and back-office teams to fully manage the dispute lifecycle while saving time, reducing errors, and maintaining compliance,” said CTO Williams.
