In the short-term, Mono is providing a digital bank account for Latam startups and SMEs, that can be opened 100% through WhatsApp in 17 minutes, and that integrates to third-party SaaS (i.e. accounting, payroll, or taxes).
In the long-term, we're building a 'bankingless bank'. This is, a bank that automatizes operational, accounting and financial processes in order to let the entrepreneur focus on their business.
