# Dill

> Dill is a San Francisco fintech, founded in 2022 and backed by Y Combinator (W23), that helps construction wholesalers, distributors, and suppliers get paid faster. Its software digitizes the paper-heavy back office of the building-materials trade - online credit applications, accounts-receivable automation, white-labeled payment portals, and lien-rights tracking - and plugs into distribution ERPs like Epicor Prophet 21 and Eclipse. The pitch is simple: suppliers spend less time chasing invoices and more time selling.
