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!

Congrats on your launch, team! It’s great to see you focusing on such a specific niche 👌

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.

Hey Product Hunt, I’m excited to share what we've been working on for the past two years. Pideaky is a platform designed to accelerate cash flow for SMBs in Mexico. We've developed a proprietary scoring system based on our 20 years of experience in the SMB market and enhanced it with AI. Our system works by having customers send photos of their inventory. We extract the information from these photos and, with over 90% accuracy, determine the inventory value. This allows us to estimate their cash flow, prove their creditworthiness, and underwrite with high precision. We’re thrilled to help so many SMBs across Mexico and are ready to expand.

Its definately exciting to share the results of many many hours of hard work! Its impressive and empowering to take an observer view and watch how our payment platform allows one single person manage and supervise over 100,000 digital loan payments with ease. A job that used to occupy entire departments or simply be an underserved overwelming task . These are interesting times and we'r definately proud to be building the tools the future holds for small businesses to grow faster and with unprecedented efficiency, clarity and capital opportunities!

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