Mason

I co-founded @UpCounsel in 2012 which sold to LinkedIn in 2019 and then co-founded @Ratio in 2021.

My companies have raised tens of millions of dollars and grown to 60+ people.

I'm now transitioned to building, launching, and acquiring SMBs withOUT venture capital. Building my portfolio of cash-flowing businesses.


Products

  1. UpCounsel

    I co-founded UpCounsel in 2012 and was CTO for the first 7 years. In it's final year I became CEO as we led the company into being acquired by LinkedIn.

    Acquired by LinkedIn 🤐
  2. Ratio

    Ratio is a Buy Now Pay Later Fintech solution offering payment flexibility to large SaaS contract buyers / sellers. When buying SaaS software, it's common for larger companies to force buyers into paying upfront annual contracts. Net 30 payment obligations placed on buyers before any value has been provided. Ratio allows SaaS buyers to pay on a flexible payment schedule, while giving the Seller their cash upfront, just the way both parties like it. WIN-WIN!

    Ongoing 🤐
