About arenaflex:
arenaflex is building the "financial OS for senior care," aiming to solve the current senior care payments experience, which is broken and increases costs and inefficiencies for senior living operators while making it confusing, cumbersome, and stressful for families. Our mission is to make managing money for senior living easy, so our customers can focus on what really matters: providing quality housing & care. With a strong focus on customer experience, we're committed to helping one of the most overlooked groups in our population: seniors.
Our Story:
Our founders were inspired to start arenaflex after seeing the pain points firsthand with their own families. Since launching in mid-2023, we've now served thousands of families across the United States, with exciting growth ahead. We're growing 30% month-over-month, and the senior living market is massive at >$230b, expected to grow rapidly as the "baby boomer" generation continues to age. We've raised three rounds of funding from top-tier investors, including Fika Ventures, Bling Capital, Liquid2 Ventures, LiveOak Bank, Cambrian Ventures, and Max Ventures, which have collectively backed over 20 unicorns such as Square, Lyft, and Rippling.
