Investor Connect - 741 - Adam Spector of AbstractOps

On this episode of Investor Connect, Hall welcomes Adam Spector, Co-founder, and COO of AbstractOps.

Located in San Francisco, CA, AbstractOps automates all the key aspects of running a startup. This includes covering the Human Resources (HR) function, documents & contracts, financial (such as payments, taxes, and accounting), and compliance/regulatory. AbstractOps combines everything into a single platform tied to the best 3rd party software platforms in the world (such as Gusto, Carta, Quickbooks, and more), which means that with a single click of a button, a user can now automate processes end-to-end that would otherwise take dozens of steps.
