Acquisition expands Employer.com's platform capabilities, unlocks new integrations, enables inventory management and provides deeper insight for small business
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, July 14, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Employer.com today announced it has acquired the accounting software assets of Dough. The acquisition enhances Employer.com’s growing portfolio of small business back-office software, including flagship brands such as Bench Accounting and Mainstreet Tax Credits.
Dough’s software was originally developed as an innovative platform for SMB accounting. During Y Combinator, the Dough team pivoted to a new venture — AI-powered product analytics — while looking for the right strategic partner to take its accounting platform to market.
Employer.com acquired the software in an off-market transaction originated via DM from Amogh Chaturvedi on X (formerly Twitter) —a deal which, fittingly for this era of online-first founders, was driven entirely by social media outreach.
“The accounting software that Amogh and team built was too good to leave on the shelf,” said Jesse Tinsley, CEO of Employer.com. “We see tremendous opportunity to integrate this product into our platform as we continue to expand Employer.com’s back-office offerings for entrepreneurs and small businesses.”
Dough's software will soon be embedded into Employer.com's expanding platform, where it will be further developed and launched to market.
“Employer.com was a natural fit for us,” said Chaturvedi. “We built Dough for small business owners, and Employer.com—with Bench and Mainstreet—already reaches this exact audience. We’re excited to see our work live on and scale within such a strong ecosystem and team.”
Employer.com is continuing to invest in expanding its portfolio of back-office services, having completed multiple acquisitions over the past year. Founded by Stanford dropout Amogh Chaturvedi — who at just 19 has exited his first company — alongside co-founders Chirag Kawediya and Skyler Ji, Dough's software will now be embedded into Employer.com's expanding platform, where it will be further developed and launched to market.
For the young team, this exit also helps propel their current company, Human Behavior—a new AI platform that analyzes real user sessions to deliver advanced behavioral analytics. It’s one of the fastest growing companies out of the recent YC batch.
