Pideaky

I’m very inspired by Carlos’s story. It’s not your typical “yet another AI SaaS indie hacker”. Carlos has been working with LatAm SMBs for more than 20 years — and built 2 companies that served over 350k corner shops and their neighbors. With Pideaky (YC S21) he has already impacted over 6,200 corner store owners by providing them with inventory-based financing and payments/collection/reconciliation solutions. They’re finally coming out of stealth and I couldn’t be more happy to hunt them!

Hey ProductHunt, I’m very excited to share what we have been building over the last 2 years. I’m a serial entrepreneur who has worked with LatAm SMBs for more than twenty years (more on that below). Previously, We’ve built 2 great companies serving SMBs: 1. A Payphone manufacturer ([R&C Telecomunicaciones](https://enlacee.org/rc-telecomun...)), where we sold more than100k payphones to corner shops across Latin America (Chile, Perú Argentina, Central America, and México) as well as to major carriers such as Movistar, Bellsouth, Telcel, Telmex. 2. Wireless internet network (ORCA Wireless), which we built from scratch and where we provided the service to 250k neighbors of corner shops. Currently, at Pideaky (YC S21), we help offline LatAm SMBs manage and accelerate their cash flow through inventory-based financing and payments/collection/reconciliation solutions. We focus on the massively underserved $70B/year customer segment as our wedge—Mexican corner shops and corner shop providers. To date, we’ve already impacted over 6,200 corner store owners. We’re backed by Silicon Valley VCs (Wayfinder, Goodwater) and are actively hiring and expanding across Mexico/LatAm. Let us know if you'd like to connect — I’m open for coffee chats.

Excellent job, much needed service in Mexico and LatAm!!
