Solo founders now make up most new companies.
The work that used to take a team to start a business has gotten smaller with the right person and the right tools.
October at Rho was about that person.
Here’s what we shipped:
Start Your Business Fast. Form an LLC in any of the 50 states, with your Rho account application in the same flow.
Hire Rho for Finance. Rho for Slack puts your finances where your team already works.
Save Valuable Operating Time. The Rho MCP and API now read across cash flow insights, expenses, invoices, and more.
Start your business fast
You can now form an LLC in any state through Rho, including C corps.
$349 all in. State filing fee included
Approvals take about 2-3 business days, depending on the state
Your Rho account application opens in the same flow.
If you don’t plan to raise venture capital, an LLC is usually the right entity and is simpler to run. If you are raising, form a C-corp instead. Rho forms both and returns your documents, applying them automatically.
Hire Rho for finance
The Rho for Slack agent is now available to all businesses. All your MCP tools and data now live in Slack with more context and more capabilities.
Ask what your balance is, what came in last week, or what a vendor has charged you for the month in plain English without opening the app. Find out what else Rho for Slack can do by asking it directly.
Coming soon: routines, so you can ask for a weekly report every Friday, then approvals, receipt uploads, and more.
Save valuable operating time
The Rho API now lets you read across cash flow insights, expenses, bills, scheduled transactions, and more. Webhooks are open to everyone too, so you can configure Rho to tell you the moment something changes instead of asking.
Connect Rho to Claude and ask what you spent per card last month, what a customer still owes you, or where your cash actually went.
What Rho customers are building:
Seve Ortale at Wayve Payments says he built a full AI-powered finance dashboard in about five hours. Auto-categorization, burn rate and runway tracking, an AI CFO chat, and automated weekly board summaries. He wired his own agent, Goose, directly into Rho’s API so every dollar moving through the business feeds it.
Ishan Sheth at Joinergo built a spend-tracking system on Rho’s MCP connection to Claude, breaking spend down per person and by go-to-market motion to calculate acquisition cost per demo.
Coming soon: move money with the Rho API.
Also in this release
Block unwanted ACH debits. Add a vendor to your block list, and we’ll turn away any money they try to pull from any of your accounts.
Auto-transfer rules now fire on a balance change. Rho monitors your account’s available balance, and when it falls below the minimum you set, we move money in automatically.
Invoicing on mobile. Create, send, and track invoices from your phone.
Rillet and Xero accounting integrations. Push transactions into Rillet as a bank feed or sync directly with Xero.
One person should be able to do the work it used to take a team. We’re building Rho to be the place that your company starts, the financial layer in your stack, and the source of truth your agents plug into
