Everywhere Ventures

Financial data is everywhere. Clarity is not. Spade just raised a $40M series B to fix that. Announced by Axios, the company is scaling its platform to turn messy bank transaction data into structured, actionable insight. CEO and co-founder Oban MacTavish is focused on a core problem. Most transaction data is inconsistent, unstructured, and hard to use. Spade standardizes and enriches that data, powering everything from underwriting to fraud detection to financial analytics. Better products start with better data usability. Data usability results from greater clarity. 📩 Read our full breakdown on the Everywhere Ventures Substack to see why transaction data is becoming a critical layer in fintech: https://lnkd.in/e4BV2hVu cc Jenny Fielding, Scott Hartley, Anna Barber, Michael Barone, Eileen McRae, Alexis Torio, Oban MacTavish #Fintech #DataInfrastructure #FinancialData #VentureCapital #EverywhereVentures
