Dashdoc was created in September 2017 by Benoit Joncquez, Corentin Smith, Paul-Hubert des Minières and Arthur Ouaki with the objective of becoming the first SaaS road transport software system in France. In 2017, we sold our first app, Truckfly to Michelin in order to invest in Dashdoc. It then had over 100k MAU. At Dashdoc, we believe that having better access to the transport data from the transport order to the billing is a basic need. Because it is a professional challenge and a poorly digitalized sector, it should be super simple and user-friendly. We challenge the actual solutions by crafting beautifully designed tools that help our users to gather all road transport orders data, take the right decisions and share it with other stakeholders, with minimal effort. Focused on user-experience, Dashdoc centralizes all data and automatize all processes from a transport order from the shipping order until the billing. We help our customers order faster, access information better, bill faster and share all information.

Pennylane is building the financial OS (Operating System) for European SMEs. A single source of truth for financial and accounting data, used on one side by entrepreneurs to run their business (invoicing and getting paid, paying suppliers and expense management, piloting cash and profitability) and on the other side by their accountant for bookkeeping and tax filings. Saving time to all entrepreneurs and accountants, helping them to make the right decisions and enabling 3rd parties to offer added-value personalized financial services. We’ve launched in France and will expand to other markets in Continental Europe in 2024. Our commercial website is thus in French only but the code is obviously documented in English and our tech team speaks English. We’re product-led, growing fast, backed by strong investors and are hiring software engineers anywhere in Europe to join our experienced remote-first engineering team.
