Employ.com Acquires Mainstreet: A Strategic Move in Fintech

Employ.com has acquired Mainstreet.com for an undisclosed amount, marking the latest acquisition in the fast-evolving fintech landscape.

The Acquisition Announcement

In a recent post on social media platform x, Jesse Tinsley, the co-founder and president of Employ.com, confirmed the acquisition, bringing Mainstreet under the umbrella of the labor management company. This move signifies a strategic expansion for Employ.com as it continues to grow its fintech portfolio.

About Mainstreet: A Brief Overview

Mainstreet, established in 2019 and based in San Jose, California, specializes in assisting startups in identifying research and development tax credits. The platform generated significant revenue in its early years, surpassing $1 million and helping clients save an average of $51,000. By 2021, Mainstreet’s revenues soared to $15 million, according to industry newsletter Not Boring.

Challenges Faced by Mainstreet

However, signs of distress appeared in 2022 when Mainstreet laid off around 30% of its workforce, citing “an incredibly difficult market.” At its peak valuation of $500 million in 2021, the company faced challenges in securing additional funding, resulting in a down round in 2022, dropping to a valuation of $200 million.

Financial Backing and Investment

Despite recent challenges, Mainstreet managed to secure approximately $75 million in venture capital from notable investors such as Signalfire, Tusk Ventures, and Gradient Ventures. Tinsley noted that one of Mainstreet’s investors facilitated the introduction to Employ.com, leading to this acquisition.

Integration and Future Prospects

The acquisition will see Mainstreet’s team of 15 integrate into Employ.com, which employs around 500 individuals across its various sectors. With this deal, Employ.com is now valued at over $700 million, further solidifying its position in the fintech space.

Recent Developments and Future Goals

Employ.com has been actively seeking growth opportunities, having recently acquired Bench, an accounting startup that faced difficulties following a sudden shutdown. Tinsley emphasized that these acquisitions align with Employ.com’s overarching goal of creating an automated end-to-end platform for back-office operations.

A Broader Vision

In a surprising turn, Tinsley and Employ.com were also involved in discussions to acquire TikTok, reportedly making a cash offer. While the outcome of that bid remains uncertain, it highlights Employ.com’s ambitions to expand its portfolio significantly.

This story was updated to accurately reflect Mainstreet’s funding details.
