Stripe acquires Clerky
Stripe has acquired Clerky, a popular online legal service platform for startups. The acquisition aims to integrate Clerky's legal paperwork automation tools into Stripe's existing infrastructure for startup founders.
Why it matters
This consolidation strengthens Stripe's position as an all-in-one operating system for startups by streamlining the legal formation process alongside financial services.
We're happy to announce that Clerky has agreed to join Stripe!
We started Clerky more than a decade ago because we believed startups and their attorneys should be able to get routine startup paperwork done quickly, easily, and without causing problems for legal due diligence. As startup attorneys in Silicon Valley, we saw how our clients would try to get paperwork done faster and cheaper, but ended up paying us more in the end to fix everything. We started Clerky to provide the experience our clients were looking for, but with our legal expertise built into the products.
