Alaan

About

Alaan is an AI-native finance platform for businesses in the Middle East. One platform for corporate cards, expense management, cross-border payments, accounting automation, treasury, business banking, and more, with AI doing the work finance teams used to do by hand: coding transactions, chasing approvals and receipts, flagging policy breaches, placing treasury deposits and closing the books.

Our mission is to simplify finance for businesses so they can save time and money.

Over 3,000 businesses use Alaan, from first-time founders to enterprises like Careem, G42, Tabby, Al Barari, and Rivoli. Since 2022, they have saved more than 2.2 million hours of manual finance work.

Alaan raised one of the largest Series A rounds in Middle East history, backed by Peak XV (formerly Sequoia India), Y Combinator, 468 Capital, and 885 Capital, among others. Headquartered in Dubai, Alaan has more than 250 employees across its Dubai, Riyadh, and Bangalore offices, with a team that comes from Careem, McKinsey, BCG, Goldman Sachs, Amazon, Revolut, Rippling, and the world’s leading firms.

Alaan has been named to the UAE Future 100 list, selected as an Endeavor company, and ranked the No. 1 spend management platform in EMEA by G2.
