Pravega Ventures, Beenext lead fresh round in expense management startup Fyle

Expense management startup Fyle has secured an undisclosed amount of funding led by existing investors Pravega Ventures and Beenext with participation from Girish Mathrubootham-led Freshworks.

The Bengaluru-headquartered company plans to deploy the proceeds towards expanding its sales and marketing as well as for research and development, reports Mint.

Fyle was floated in 2016 by Yashwanth Madhusudan and Sivaramakrishnan Narayanan. It is an expense management solution for enterprises and individuals. The startup’s one-click expense report signals the end of expense forms and templates, making it easy for individuals, businesses, and non-profits to keep track of their expenses.

It has partnered with Microsoft and has run joint campaigns. Fyle integrates with the enterprise system smoothly and users can receive relevant data and information on their Outlook (Microsoft’s product) page instantly.
