Florin
The financial operating system for the companies building the future.
About Florin
Florin brings banking, payments, cards, and treasury into one account built for startups - so founders can hold, move, and grow their capital without stitching together half a dozen tools. Unlike platforms that resell another bank's rails, we're building the infrastructure ourselves, end to end, so money moves in real time on a single ledger we own. We start with an invite-only membership for venture-backed companies and expand from there. Named after the florin, the coin that anchored global trade for three centuries, with infrastructure built for how money moves now.

Claude Code project
Claude Code just one-shot a 10,000 line project for me, then struggled with a simple riddle; the future is here but unevenly distributed within the same model.
