Congrats to the Chargeback team and @zachshakked & @isatthegym for their sale to @getflex_hq
This is a big win for Flex customers and the team at Chargeback, which built some incredible tech. I also love it when we get an acquisition within the @restivevc family!
Let's go!

Last year, we spent a lot of time thinking about where the economy is going with advances in agentic AI.
We coined a new term "AiFi" (AI Financial Services) and predicted the dawn of a new era.
Less than a year later, we're seeing massive innovation in categories like agentic payments, security, insurance, controls, and more.
If you're building the next big thing for agents or financial services, get in touch!

From taking a cold DM to becoming one of our earliest champions, they've believed that AI-native financial infrastructure will define the next decade of financial services.
Grateful to have @Ryan_Falvey and @JTylerGriffin at @restivevc in our corner from day one.

$70B of regular people's money is stuck in state unclaimed property accounts. Old 401(k)s, paychecks, inheritances that quietly slipped away.
Eisen is building the infrastructure to stop the leak. Huge congrats to the team on the $18.5M total raise. Proud to be early investors!

Allen is one of the hardest working founders we've had the honor of partnering with. Excited that they're finally taking the wraps off a business that created a new category in fintech. If you're a bank, fintech or cypto co that doesn't have an escheatment solution, reach out! fortune.com/2026/05/19/eisen…

Dominic Vitucci, founder of Onshore, told @Ryan_Falvey on our podcast that the Big 4 "have no right to exist anymore" if they keep dragging their feet on AI.
We backed Onshore in 2023 at $1.3M in revenue. They're on pace for $100M this year. Three straight 4x years.
What they do: collapse the R&D tax credit process from 9–12 months down to 2–4 weeks at a fraction of legacy fees. Worth a listen.

Thanks to @ryanlawler and @axios for the coverage on Restive Ventures.
The early Fund III momentum captured in this piece belongs to the founders we've backed. They're the ones building, shipping, and proving out the thesis every day. We are all grateful to be in business with them.
Let's go!

Huge congrats to @immad and the @mercury team on OCC conditional approval for Mercury Bank, N.A., a major step toward becoming a national bank.
Immad joined us at Go Restive to share how he's building radically different banking for ambitious companies. Worth a watch
1/ Today @Mercury received conditional approval from the OCC to establish Mercury Bank, N.A.
I started Mercury in 2017 to build the bank I wish had existed as a founder. Nearly a decade later, we’re getting there.
