Slash hits $500M annualized revenue with fewer than 100 employees, founder says

Founder Victor Cardenas says Slash's growth stems from serving what he calls the "SuperSMB"—lean, fast-growing, AI-native businesses. He attributes the rise to AI: U.S. business applications hit about 5.6 million in 2025, up from 3.5 million in 2019. On Slash, 88% of assets belong to founders under 35, and 65% of monthly spend comes from businesses started in the last three years. He outlines sales and product tactics: referrals, global availability, API/MCP access, niche tooling, and aggressive pricing. Slash is now the primary banking partner for over 80% of customers, up from under 20% two years ago.
