Streamlining Financial Operations for Mid-Market Businesses
Founded by Arpita Kapoor and Mohit Rangaraju, Mysa specializes in innovative software solutions that seamlessly integrate with legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and the banking infrastructure of mid-market businesses. The platform is designed to help finance teams automate various workflows without the need for cumbersome system migrations, addressing a critical pain point for these organizations.

Future Plans for Product Expansion and Automation
With the newly acquired capital, Mysa aims to enhance its automation capabilities and introduce additional banking products. Upcoming offerings will include sophisticated procurement tools, Unified Payments Interface (UPI)-linked expense management solutions, and corporate credit cards. The startup is also exploring integrated financing opportunities through its supplier network, ensuring a comprehensive suite of services for its clients.
Strong Transaction Volumes and Banking Integrations
Mysa has made impressive strides since its inception, currently processing over Rs 1,500 crore in annualized transaction volumes and facilitating payments across more than 40,000 bank accounts. Their platform integrates with over 15 financial institutions, including major banks like Axis Bank, Yes Bank, IDFC First Bank, ICICI Bank, and HDFC Bank.
Transforming Financial Management in Diverse Sectors
CEO Arpita Kapoor emphasized the need for finance teams to adapt to increasingly complex requirements. “We’re building an AI-driven automation platform that integrates effortlessly with legacy ERPs and banking systems,” she stated. This functionality allows businesses to scale operations without incurring additional risks or upfront costs.
Mysa’s client portfolio spans various sectors, including fast commerce, manufacturing, hospitality, fintech, and real estate. Notable clients include Dhan, Wint Wealth, Swish, DrinkPrime, and Material Depot, further demonstrating the startup’s versatile utility in enhancing financial workflows.
A Promising Future for Mid-Sized Businesses
According to investors, mid-sized businesses in India have remained underserved by existing financial software solutions. Ajay Modi, Chief Investment Officer at Piper Serica, highlighted the untapped potential in this sector, stating, “Mysa is creating a new category by fusing AI-driven automation with deep banking integrations.” The startup is well-positioned to revolutionize the financial landscape for mid-market companies, making existing workflows more efficient and effective.
