🌳 About Bonsai

Bonsai helps 500,000+ solo-businesses in 100+ countries start, run, and grow their businesses.

The way the world works is changing: Freelancers make up 40% of the workforce today and will be 50%+ by 2030. People want flexible and independent careers. Companies want great on-demand talent.

That's where Bonsai comes in. We take care of a freelancer's admin work - contracts, proposals, invoices, payments, accounting & taxes and even banking - so they can focus on the work they love and just make money.

We're profitable and growing quickly, and are backed by some of the world's best investors (YC, Matrix Partners, Index Ventures).

We've also been 90% remote since 2016 and our team is spread across 9 different countries.
